Hi Guys.
I've just installed my CustomMSP SMIC, Turbohoses Hardpipes and Injen CAI. My friend with an SRT-4 (basterd cars!!) is trying to convince me that turbo cars NEED an oil catch can. It's been over 4 months I don't think there is a drop of oil in his catch can. So I ask you these questions, Do I need an oil catch can in my MSP?? If so, aren't they all the same? Can I just purchase one of off Ebay for $18.00?? or do I need a Greddy for $130

What the hell is that third plug on the bottom of the can?? My friend's Greddy catch can doesn't have a 3rd plug. Lastly, These don't really increase HP like the image says, do they??

Thanks!!
 
No you don't really need it, it might help but not needed. The third hole might be a drainage that you'd keep pluged, and no I don't see them making a difference in HP.
 
HA! i want one only because they look good but, then again im all about looks....

i have a looong way to go, i know!

It's negligible, but I think they mean less octane dillution = less knock = more timing = more power.
