Todd, Lethal Performance's site doesn't let you pull up installation instructions. When you get yours, would you please post them here?

Okay I read everything, but one thing that still confuses me, do any of the available ones recycle the oil back into the engine automatically, or are the ones some of these companies are developing do that? That's what I would want. I like automation.

The JLT one doesn't put the oil back into the engine. It captures it in the catch can through the filter media. It's not like you need to drain it out every time you fill up. You can go several thousand miles between having to drain it. Really not that big of a deal.

Correct... Talking to them, they were thinking of solidly mounting to oil fill tube and allowing the captured oil to drain back into crankcase. The issues is the moisture being captured and causing oil to turn cloudy. That is why catch can is preferred over self draining..

This has been an issue people have had with a catch can on Evos that drains back into the pan via a modified dipstick tube. It's why I run just a regular catch can on my car and just drain it from time to time-especially since my car runes E85(and soon E98)
