Dumbest Alta Question Ever Award? I'm seeking the nomination...
Alright, I've got my catch-can installed (at the frame location, adjacent to the i/c). My question is: How do you drain the can? The bottom piece is mounted to the frame bolt, so the whole thing can can't come out--asuming I'd even stick a socket into that oil/water muck.
Do you just undo the top connection of the clear sight-gauge line and drain it from the bottom, or... ? Apologies if this has been answered before, I searched the forums and couldn't find the answer.
Many thanks.

The only problem that I have had with your products have been the rear end links. The first set had hymejoint problems and your company replaced the joints. It has been 4 months and they are going bad again. So I gave up and put the factory ones back on.
Little disappointed especially based on the price that I paid for them.

dariyboy,
There is BOV included, sorry if we missed it in the pictures, but it should be there. The kit does need a BOV, due to the higher boost we are running. Some cars that have Turbo kits for NA cars, don't use them because of the low boost. But it surely needs one on this application.
tools,
CAn you describe your problem? We have had very good, trouble free performance from the rear endlinks. There must be something going on with yours if this is the second time. Lets figure that out!

Question to mounting of the LW Crank Pulley
Hi !
I've heard about cases of loosening lightened crank pulleys..
Any cases / reasons known here ?
Maybe caused by different termal expansion of steel and alu - what do you think about this risk ?
Couldn't find any detailled "how to mount" instructions in the net..
Thx and Regards,
Wolfgang

wohi,
We have never heard of this! The crank pulley is a press fit on to the nose of the crank, and as a secondary "holder" there is a large bolt to hold it on. So beside the press fit the bolt should hold it on as long as it is tight!
There used to be a how-to from Webb??
