ah it's not that great, 180 degree bends are not exactly good for air flow!

And here's a little bit of Cusco lovin' with an oil catch tank, supposed to help the engine run cleaner... anyone have experience with this?

I am planning on putting in an oil catch tank and was looking at the Cusco one as well. For those times when you are running your car hard and doing alot of fast hard turns like when you are in the solo slalom event. It catches the oil and sludge that comes out of your intake and maintains the airflow from getting gunged up. This is all I really know, but I think it will help in the long run if you are doing performance driving at the weekend track and keep the engine internals clean.

Was there any reason you had it installed?

I agree with you! Sound good when you shift up or kick down for accle! Torque coming and rpm running faster than factory filter and intake box.

I've got my oil catch tank installed and wanted to find out about the tubing on your car.
The blue tubing from your catch tank that attached to the top right hand side of the head cover. Is this tubing really hard and doesn't soften with the heat the engine and header makes? I've had two types installed already, one harder than the other, but even the harder one still collapses like a vacuum is sucking it shut. If you can tell me what kind of tubing you have. That'd be greatly appreciated.

What all did you buy to have that set up? obviously more than the filter right?

Looks good! I like that intake design!
An oil catch can is usually to go between the valve cover and intake pipe or PCV valve and intake pipe. It's function is to remove oil and or oil vapor from positive air coming from the valve cover and oil vapor induction in the intake. Usually you don't install these unless you have blow by. I don't have blow by on my engine but I wish to have clean intake. Oil vapor can lower fuel octane significantly.

You can fabricate one for under 20 dollars.
