You can read more details on this product on their site here: http://bit.ly/1obuD64

Sledgie,

Is the reservoir cup removable without having to demount the entire catch can? It's hard to see the dark recesses of your engine compartment! (Get a light! lol) I know I asked this on your YT channel, but wanted to confirm if one has to remove the entire CC or not.

Thanks!

Tara

You can remove the lower cup, but it isn't going to be super easy. Going to do another video on how to be empty it once she needs her next oil change.

The output on the Mishmoto can goes into the upper port on the intake manifold and the input goes into the lower section.

I highlight which is which at 4:36 in the video.

Mine was installed yesterday, and this video was very helpful. Thank you Sledgehammer.

No problem

So I got my catch can, viewed the video, but still need to see how the unit is to be serviced before installing it. Great job on the video. No point installing it not being
sure on the best way to servicing it! I will be watching.

Sledge is educated on "blowby"as that was the 1st. mod I did to my pony car. Mine is a UPR catch can.

Thanks for the video. I will be installing mine this weekend. Nothing wrong with increasing the longevity of the engine.

Tara Martin · 03-05-2016, 11:29 AM

I just finished mine! ...and Sledgie was right there helping me!

Thanks a lot, Sledgehammer70!

There's one thing I want to do and it's just cosmetic. Mishimoto includes good quality hose clamps, but they're nickel/chrome plated. I think I want to find some hose clamps with a black finish, at least for the clamps right at the CC. The ones at the intake aren't visible.

Tara,

Thanks for posting the pics. I also ordered the blue hoses for the catch can on my HBM. I haven't had an opportunity to install it yet. I can see now the blue hoses are a great choice for HBM cars.
