Thread: VE+t swap project ...REtuning with ALKY injection soon

What are you going to do for a oil catch can?

Billet 62 ftmfw! I just saw one in action today and OMG. I want one now. MUST HAVE.

I am probaly going to order one ....the VE has the oil seperator built in , so you can route one of the valve cover vents into the crank case , the other , well I noticed Coheed just had a filter on it , the same as some DET guys have done , I have thought about running it into the intake side of the turbo to draw the.....what kind of imput do you have ...

You and I have the same issue regarding the VC vent closest to the manifold being very close and it possibly could be melted by the manifold. As far as the vent closest to the intake that can be routed to the intake charge pipe.

I was thinking of making a nice small custom oil catch can and maybe run some braided lines to it from both vents on the VC. Not sure yet. Just a brainstorm at this moment. Thing with me is that I hate clutter. So I need to figure somthing out. If not I will figure out a way to run both vents OEM.

I was going to wrap the one in front with a heat sheilding material ...and running the other one the intake

If you can, don't follow my setup. It is far from perfect. But it works. Your crankcase relief should be plumbed into a better evacuation setup than what I have. Plumb back to the intake before the turbo and use the turbo to help pull the excess crank pressure out.

This will increase ring seal and reduce windage losses. My "atmospheric" setup is decent to get you started, but having a true evac setup will outperform it.

impressive !

alright how does this sound ....PCV valve and vent near throttel boddy to intake in front of turbo ....and the front valve cover vent into the crank case ....I still think the aft vent by the trottle body could just have a filter as long as the PCV valve is be drawn from the intake before the turbo ....as it will almost alway see suction and venting the one by the throttle body would then be fine ...am I missing somthing ....I dont want to have to much suction in the crankcase , if there is such a thing .....



Thanks that means alot ....I have always loved your ride

Well I have more pics from today ...but I am on duty , we are defently using the boost by gear function the AEM offers , I think it will be our only hope of traction in the lower gears .....should be out of the shop pretty soon

Very happy for you.Lookin at your I.C setup just gave me a sweet idea!!
