well as some of you may know i blew the differential in the fit so its just sitting in my driveway and i hate not driving it so i figured i might as well do some modifying, so i got a Cusco catch can and got it all welded up. i think it looks really good what ya think????

looks good but god damn! whats up with the cracks in the casting on the valve cover? also, what did you do with the bung on the opposite side? and lastly (for the sake of being a hater) why didnt you paint it while it was off??

other than my small criticisms, it looks really good. looks just like my oil drain bung except i used steel braided hose.

dident think paint would look good cuz u barley see the valve cover and there not really cracks there like razed bumps i guess slag left over from the casting process.

good job! i would have done one on the other side too just to be safe, but one should be just fine

thank you for posting that. i have that exact catch can on route. so does this only connect to the one bung that has been welded on the valve cover?

yea if ur cars not boosted then just hook it up to the factory crank case vent . i did mine so it vents to the atmospheres but u can also put both lines into the valve cover . the can it self is just sooooo nice the quality is amazing.

Looks good... IMC looks like poop.

And Kelsey, my valve cover has cracks too.

kelsodeez · #14 (**permalink**) 01-21-2009, 07:43 PM

intake manifold cover

Do a search.

gd3kamiwanaB · #16 (**permalink**) 01-21-2009, 08:47 PM

ahh the cover well thats all getting cleaned up and painted im doing all my turbo/vacc/crank case vent lines in all -8 AN braided steel and AN fittings shold look real good. plus im moving the battery to the back and making a polished aluminum shelf where the batt used to be and put a fuel filter amp fuse and volt regulator. then im gona do a mini wire tuck, i really want a clean engine bay

im going with the t1r kit cause there are no hks tuners around me but my good friend is a pro at tuning the greddy ultimate.

take that IMC off and paint the lower aluminum half of your intake manifold black to match the upper half of it. thats what i did!!!

those are not cracks in the valve cover. they are drauss left from the aluminum casting process that fused with the piece. just buff them off if they bug you.
