Ready for turbo bolt in tomorrow and connect all lines to it. Just still need to drill drain line. Once the drain is in, I'll drain the oil and flush as well as install the sandwich plate and sender's for oil temp/press. Not a lot left to do. Dropping the ecu off to Ralph for initial flash tomorrow too. Hopefully the postie drops the last few bits off!(waiting on one gauge, crossover vibration mounts etc, just little stuff) Woohoo! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reason I am asking, is I still have not installed my damn catch can, cause I have no idea what piping and pcv check valve to get, before I install the catch can.

They had to order it and it was around $30 I think. A new PCV is only $9 or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stock one way valve may not be strong enough. I use an aftermarket one so my catch can doesn't get pressurised Edited 21/03/18 04:42 AM by arronm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had the same thought RE pressure rating, also will be doing a bigger size line than factory when I get around to doing my catch can setup Edited 21/03/18 06:50 AM by camo86T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few little bits tomorrow and refill fluids after etc and pick the ECU up. 50% chance of starting her up tomorrow but may end up being Monday if I can't get everything 100%. Either way, exhaust won't be finished until next week. It's my Birthday Saturday so Sunday I won't be moving a whole lot haha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
