Hello gentlemen,
With about 40.000km on our DFI engine and quite an extensive tracking, it is more than about time to finally clean up the engine breathing capabilities and get rid of carbon build up on valves and oily IC and intake manifold.
I'd kindly ask you for your guidance. I'm in the final stage of releasing our oil catch can system and there are two options. We can go with top end baffled catch can or a standard non baffled catch can. The standard one, will remove about 90% of dirty oily vapors and provide a clean engine to the engine PCV. The more expensive - baffled catch can will remove additional 5-10%, let's say 98%. It's just a guess and some test with water vapors. For 4C engine we need two oil catch cans to make system work correctly, so with all the brackets, piping, clamps and two oil catch cans the complete system will come with a price penalty. So the question is. Would you go with standard more cost effective solution, or would you go with top end, baffled system, regardless of the cost. The good thing is that system will last the lifetime and the filters inside the catch cans are washable and replaceable.
I know the way I'll go, but I'm still curious what would you guys choose?
And don't worry, the poll is anonymous.
Budget variant... 😁
Proper variant... 🥰
