code don't really matter just need to compensate for it by venting the crankcase other ways, like blazins setup..hoping an oil filter cap and a filter on the vc will do ok for mine lol

So when you guys mount your catch cans, where are you running the "return" line too? back into the intake pre blower?

....did you get your valve cover chromed? or is that just uber polished aluminum?

and to stay on topic...would installing a catch can onto a 2.2 be beneficial?, i installed a 2.4 intake mani couple weeks ago, and my old one was Full of oil n crap

Interested in pictures. Which model did you get? I'm thinking about getting their Evo one since the nipples are on the same side and that'd make it easier to route the hoses. Decided I need one since I just lost a MAP and my intake manifold is coated in oil.
