How many of you have the OIL CATCH CAN?

This car is starting to become an obsession (in a good way). Some of you who responded about the pulley show that they also installed an oil catch can (mostly ALTA I believe). Does this really make a difference and how hard is it to install? Is it needed?

THank you,

Andreas

I have the M7 catch can. It is very easy to install. Does it make a difference? Not a difference you can feel when it is installed. It is more of a maintenance type of performance product. It keeps the inside of the intercooler clean so that you don’t have a long-term loss in performance due to sludge build-up and subsequent heat.
