Dual Catch Can Experiment…couldn’t resist.

[bb-tt]

yeah mine was worse than that with the k04, the new pcv helped somewhat. Now with the efr not seeing barely anything but only running up to 2.5 bar(including atmosphere)

!!! Good to know! One of the main reasons I was looking into this was because I thought the EFR would only make the issue worse! Also wanted to protect the EFR! And yes - thinking of the PCV as a consumable and changing it out definitely helps. I’ve got a new one ready to go in when I finally switch over to the EFR.

Very glad you are trying this out and looking forward to reported results. This is exactly what I was thinking of doing. That can will get the same full-force of the boost and vacuum that is present in the intake manifold, so reliability/durability of the seals, connectors and hoses will be of interest. I sure hope this works well for you.

Great point! I have definitely added several potential leak points with this setup! Because of how the ECS catch can setup was originally configured, I wonder if it was ever designed to take the full vacuum/pressure of the intake manifold. I will definitely need to keep an eye on that. I did not pressure test any of the connections. As of now, no leaks, but I really haven’t been driving it too hard. The weather is breaking so boost season is near!!! Time will tell :). I should probably get some replacement o-rings and seals just in case!!!
