good advice..

I will add that IMO a catch can on FI is completely superfluous.

Since I don't have a PVC, my intake is oil-free for ZERO dollars. The OEM already has a catch can on the atmosphere side that makes use of the two valve covers, a drain to the oil pan and a vent to the intake (which I vent to atmosphere). The PVC has zero functionality at or near wot, zero functionality on boost. i.e. when you really need it, it ain't working.

Now if we want to talk about how functional a can is, the number one thing would be the location of the vent, not the design of the can (longer the better).

Vent FAR more than silly PVC and is cleaner than any catch can to intake vacuum. Install time 2 minutes.

Catch can for $27.00

I hate fooling around with braided lines for silly things like vents etc. Sure if you have the time and money and the car is a show queen.
