Re: Evo X upgrades

I was doing a lot of reading on crankcase ventilation today.

I'm probably wasting my time trying to make the stock setup work--it is only a single fitting that couldn't be more than 3/8ths. It sounds like most setups are running two to four large AN connections (AN10+). Four is obviously overkill but I won't get much ventilation with the stock setup.

I did learn a fair bit. The can on the front of the motor (PCV to intake manifold) collects the most oil but is apparently not the important can for ventilation...the back one is.

For now I'm going to get a fitting on my intake for that connection and see if it does anything. My suspicion is that I'm going to have to pull the valve cover and have some large fittings welded in, along with a different catch can.
