Hey all, could someone point me in the right direction of where I could source a half decent looking catch can for my taxi, locally, and some ideas on where to install them under the hood?

Cheers for any info.

Rob @ MT does a good Catch Can set up....

Why would you want to fit an overboost valve? Just tune it right and it wont need it.

plus overboost = ping = more power

The boost spike on gear changes is supposed to be a bit high. My stocker hit 9 PSI on auto gear change. I'm yet to log it post tune but I expect it's spiking as well. Downside of a faster gear box (auto)!

At least we don't have the other factory choice like the new Miami engine which goes retarded at gear changes :/

Debadging car tonight...that black glue is farked to get off. Here's an idea for reapplying them . :bum:

I'm after opinions on badge placement, head over to the existing thread here to see some chops! Cheers.

Heat = slow car ffs..

Not sure if Im just imagining things but sometimes I dont think my turbo spools up even after giving it sh*t.. Its weird.

It was over 36 degrees today. Your car will always feel it bit slower in hot weather.
