    if you're getting oil into your charge-pipes and you don't like it, then yea, go ahead. Catch cans are to prevent oil vapors from re-entering your combustion chamber, it's not going to give you horsepower, it just allows your car to run a bit cleaner.

    Damn. what size did you get? I ordered the smallest one that had. and I do have a bit more room in the engine bay now that I got rid of the stock airbox for my x-1 intake.

    Re: oil catch can

    Pretty sure I got the bigger size, but I don't know that it matters. I remember reading that all GReddy cans were too big. You "might" be ok without the stock airbox. Good luck
