Richie's 1gb TSI

Those cans are badass, you want a smaller fitting on the intake pipe side to keep velocity at a high level, I'd do a -10 on the VC and -8 on the intake.

Good luck and post some pics!

I don't think I can switch the fittings on the catchcan can I? The one I ordered comes with 2 -8an inlets and a -10an outlet.

Hmm, didn't know this. Thanks.

I actually thought about whether adding a slash cut (like is done with exhaust scavenging) to the fitting would help any. Would take all of about 5 minutes.

If we have a smaller fitting at the intake wouldn't that be a restriction for the catch can system? It would have higher velocity coming out of that fitting but the velocity from the two -10an fittings on the valve cover would be significantly slower.

DSMLink and a premium built Jacks transmission are on their way!

I currently have a gm maf and my dsmlink came with a gm maf cable. What's your opinion on gm maf vs speed density? Would it be worth it to sell my gm maf + cable and add a little cash to get speed density? Or just run gm maf? The engine is still stock, just going to add cams and valve springs/retainers to rev a little higher. With that in mind I won't be pushing the car past 500hp until I get a built motor and bigger injectors next year.

I'll probably paint the catch can black, planning to get everything painted black besides the valve cover which will be red. I attached a pic of what I want the engine bay to look like. Let me know your opinions!

Got the fuel lab in a trade for my 1g wheels.

That catch can is the shit!
