[HT] DIY Oil Catch Tank
Step1
=========
I bought everything from homedepot, here is the list of materials.
SBVKG10 Braided hose 10 feet
Three hole Box 1
Three Hole Box Cover 1
Small Hose clamps 4
Brass Bush(1/2"x 1/4") 2
Barb Adapter(3/8" x 1/4") 2
Teflontape 1 roll
Buy yourself some dish scrubbing thingies at dollar store...or use foam...DO NOT USE STEEL WOOL
==========
Step2
Seal taping all your adapters and screws.
==========
Step3
It's a three hole box but you'll only need two, seal one hole using the cover that comes with the box.
===========
Step4
Almost done...
===========
Step5
Put foam or dish wipes in the box
===========
Step6
Seal the box and make sure it is not leaking any air.
===========
Step7
Installation, one pipe goes to your PCV and the other pipe goes to the intake manifold. Then find a place to mount the box.
============
Conclusion
I am satisfied for the 20bucks modification, I felt more smoother in the low end, possibly better gas consumption. Doing this at your own risk, questions goes to b16a_2@msn.com

yes, they really only become a concern when you pressurise an intake tract 
or run massive compression... then the crankcase pressures are a concern and I think the PCV gets confused.
