Linz Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Looking at this catch tank: -http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BLACK-OIL-CATCH-TANK...1QQcmdZViewItemItem number: 300209689143If I bought this, what else would I need to buy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CasperGTI Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Some 15mm piping or some 9mm piping. I think on the gti a bit of 15mm piping will fit inside the original breather hose.Or you could buy the one off car builders solutions and get the whole kaboodle including pipe for the same price?John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 are they plumbed back into the airbox? mine will go back into the standard inlet on the gti airbox, i'm just hoping to catch that oil from the TB inlet. the other alternative i could do is to vent it down to the bottom of the engine bay into the flow of the undercurrent of air going underneath the car. i realise to never use a breather filter as its bad for the engine. positioned under the car facing rearwards it should be in a negative pressure area?

CasperGTI Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 Mine comes straight from the breather pipe to the tank, since the photo ive added a pipe that goes back down to the bottom of the car, and like dark said pointed it backwards to vent the fumes under the car.John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 i have ordered one now in black. hope its works out right for fitting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
