Catch Can/Blow by oil Question
Does the S have any problem with blow by oil? Do you have to install a catch can on the cooper S?
My SRT4 would drip oil from the intercooler piping.

Not a bad idea. Some cars allow more oil by than others. Check your IC and see how dirty it is. Lots of threads about catch cans around. Check out the one by DrPhilGandini and the one about the mustard looking oil for the best tips.
