Form and Function? Finally hit the 11 second mark

Looks great. Hopefully you don't have problems threading on those AN hose ends since you painted the fittings on the VC.

Nah I made sure to take the paint off of the fittings before I put the AN line fittings on. The whole setup is on right now actually I just need to put the coolant overflow in and it shall be completed-ish

Looks good and you aren't that far from me. Actually the supplier for our shop is based out of there, Gator Products.

Hey car looks great man!

Why did you upgrade the valve cover to the two 10AN fittings? Like what problems were you seeing over the stock set up? Just trying to inquire some info about upgrading to dual 10an vents.

Thank you, I actually travel to Arkansas a decent amount. My family lives in the Damascus area and my father lives near Russellville.

Thanks, the catch can setup was done because I didn't like having a dirty intake manifold, but the main reason was to effectively get rid of crankcase pressure at my power level. I didn't feel the stock setup would be sufficient for my goals so I decided now was the best time to upgrade. Final goals are 450-500awhp

Gotcha! I was just curious because on my 1 talon I just run 2 lines from the 100% stock valve cover to a catch can and breather. And have no problems what so ever with any oil accumulating anywhere. (that car is on an hx35/meth@33psi)

However on my 20G car I am running the same catch can set up as the hx35 car and I cannot figure out why it is getting oil in the intake of the turbo. Jusmx said it might be high crank case preassure since the turbo does not burn any oil at all.

That why I asked, I guess all these DSM are different!

^^ I didn't want to run into any problems now or in the future so the setup I have now will be fine for as long as I have the car...just wanted to spend money once and be done with it


Now, for those that have asked for engine bay pics, here ya go. Still needs cleaned up, paint sucks, wiring blows, etc etc
