Oil Catch Can Noise?
#12
My catch can used to make an annoying whistle with the fixed orifice PCV valve also...I talked to the guys at AMW and they suggested that I switch back to the original style PCV valve (spring and plunger). The noise went away and the can's been working great

ok can't find it but i'll try to explain. you have two vent one pcv except for ours i guess and the vent on the passenger side. route both of those to a "T" fitting then to your catch can then from the catch can go to your intake piping ( before turbo intake or before supercharger intake) the get a small piece of hard tubing like 1/4" i guess and slash cut it at about a 45* angle then insert that into the intake tubing with the slash cut pointing toward the turbo intake or supercharger intake. this will couse a venturing affect (a vacuum from the air passing by it) this will create a vacuum in the crankcase lowering blowby and crank windage. inturn less resistance on the rotateing assembly releaseing hp.
