Yup and it adds 34.890 HP!

Its an ARC oil catch can. Purpose of an oil catch can below:

Catch cans are designed to go in line on the PCV system, to prevent the vapors of blowby from entering the intake manifold and thus, entering the combustion chamber.

The PCV system on the car has several hoses and bank connections. You have the obvious breather element that goes into the intake, post MAF, on the driver's side. You have a hose that connects the 2 banks at the front of the plenum, and you have the PCV valve connection to the lower manifold (front of plenum vacuum line connection).

The cross connected hose between the banks, balances the pressure between the banks via the PCV valve suction. The reason there is a breather on the the drivers side, is for excess blow-by as well as when the PCV valve is closed - to protect against a PCV failure.

Oil catch cans are to be installed in line between the PCV and the upper plenum, where the mass majority of crankcase ventilation occurs. Some have installed an ADDITIONAL one on the drivers side as well, as FI's tend to have extreme blow-by and the breather vapor is enough to warrant it.

so i suppose you have to clean that out periodically? that looks amazing. i see three hoses. one to the intake tube (post MAF) and then one to each bank?

[MikeGrote]

wish i had a cover for my brake cylinder like you do......

Alright. I went to see Sean today. Good Times. Mind you, I look VERY stock from the outside.

2. Polished Upper Plenum.
3. Polished Lower Plenum. (That's right, I said it)
3. Installed my Motordyne 5/16 Plenum Spacer.
4. Polished Throttle Body.
5. Installed GTSpec Front Strut Bar.

Damn you for asking!

J/K

no it is not. It did have me thinking that it should be done. You (I) can see it isn't in that picture. It is polished under that stripe that can be seen that isn't. Under that stripe, it is polished again, but still within sight, not the picture.

Good Eyes.

I couldn't see it in the pic. I have just noticed that a lot of people don't run a polished lower or polished spacer even though they have a polished upper. You've at least got the polished lower plenum. Props for that. I would polish just the edge of the spacer. It would be easy and pretty quick. I have my upper, lower, and spacer powdercoated. Looks good man. Sean does some good work. Nice products too.

[Team Punisher]

Nice Work!!!

[InfinitSkyline]
