Oil Catch Can Question? (little Confused Here)


Recommended Posts

Well I'm gona give it a try and see. The hose I circled and the other both work under vacum and I know this b/c I had a boost gauge plumbed there for a bit and everything seemed to be just fine. Any line that works under vacum is "essentialy" doing the same thing as having the hose attached to the intake on turbo. The crank case gases should (in theory) go to the can and from there be sucked in to intake plenum wether at idle or boost. It can't do any harm to try this and see how it works out.

Now as far as those hoses being usefull, well the recirc for the bov it totally useless now as I have an HKS SSQV and that only leaves the tube where the breather hose used to be attached. In which case neither of them would be needed and that won't have any effect what so ever on the performance of the engine.

I don't claim to know 100% certain but the thought process is sound here and again, what do I have to lose? :P I can always go back to your set up if there's a need to.

I'll let you guys know how it worked out and take a pic when I get it done.

Once though, thanks very much to all of you for your help and advice with this. I honestly appreciated all of it! :thumbsup:

Take care.

Cheers ;)

    • I remember test driving this car at Odaiba. All the controls are very light so it's good for commuting. I don't think a 1.2L turbo would make sense in the US though, you would be constantly deep in the boost in highway cruising. 
    • As the Bogan Cruise Ship has nothing wrong with it, and is perfect the way it is, I have decided to fix that issue, nothing major, just a little tidy up and upgrade some parts that don't really need to be upgraded  1. Upgrade the interchiller, basically another fancy pants modern and efficient condenser, a larger reservoir (current one only holds about 500ml) and a better pump (the current pump has a little rattle, so......while I'm in there.....) 2. Move the battery to the boot so I can use that real-estate to fit in a nice big reservoir where the battery currently is As for a new car, I'm holding off buying one for a few reasons: 1. Not enough garage space for another nice car, yes....I consider the Bogan Cruise Ship a nice car that needs a roof over its head, which leads to point 2 2. I'm buying a joint down the south coast next year, hopefully I can find a joint with a nice big double garage that I can get a car lift in, or, it has a massive shed for lots of cars, and a lift (I really really want a car lift) 3. I cannot decide what I want, a new freshness with all the mod cons, or a fairly old thing that I can play with when I'm bored (old as in steel bumper) In other news, there's a light at the end of the tunnel, and it isn't a train coming to run me over  Not that I'm counting

    • Yes 116PS... I don't want to sound like a Toyota PR employee but it goes way better than the figures would suggest. Typical Toyota understating the performance. I'd say it at least had 130PS! 😅 Seriously though my son will be going for his licence in 2026 and it's a good manual car he can learn on without getting in too much trouble, and after that he will inherit it.
