Recommend the Elite Engineering E2X vs any vented can

My .02 though is that ALL catch cans are better than no catch can on a DI engine so use whatever you prefer, just get one. Last edited by Z OH 6; 10-18-2020 at 02:47 PM. |

I'd like to see a comparison to MM, the Elite is proven to work. Vengeance probably likes the larger fittings/hose but the main issue is velocity through the can and removal efficiency, not just big lines. Vent to engine bay (vs closed loop) could also be a warranty issue

Actually many catch cans aren't very effective - velocity is too high or no baffling so oil doesn't drop out effectively

It seems like too much flow from some of the vented-style catch cans could be problematic, as was what was found on a current MM-build on one of our Member's cars. If I understand correctly, a restrictor had to be added in the system.

Yep that was me. Way to much vacuum was pulling into the can filling it up. 8oz in 100 miles and into the intake it went, fouling plugs and loading the magnuson with oil. The old can had a different style clean output, think it was like a small barb fitting that could be drilled, widened if needed more vacuum. New one is similiar to the dirty side, just a big fitting, hole twice the size. They put the restrictor inside the clean side of the vacuum line. I get a teaspoon or less now in a few hundred miles. and its now crankcase gases etc and not pure oil . So yes, match up correctly the type of can and setup you have so it works properly. A can with a cam and a can with stock cam yields 2 different results especially the vacuum at idle. |

Elite installs the restrictor under the blower. It just seems like there is more science and thought that went into their design.
Have yet to see any of the other guys actually post results |
