Catch can Install
Hey everyone,

So quick question, I have an stm catch can and I was wondering when installing it, do you just remove the hoses from the valve cover and block them off, then just install the catch can? Thanks

Im not the best on this topic, but make sure your set-up will benefit from running a CC

From what ive seen most run AN fittings in which the VC would require drilling / taping

I'm running the STM 3port catch can and the valve cover fittings are press in, no need to drill and tap.

Do you have the sealed or the vented STM catch can?
