From what I've read they are good to have even on a new car. I am looking at one for mine and when I get one will go with JLT.

Is this something the dealership will install, or do you need to do it yourself? I'm just worried about the whole warranty thing...

From what I understand it's a pretty easy install. I think the JLT is basically plug and play. I can't see it causing any warranty issues.

Many people swear by just a air compressor hose filter

In-Line Oil & Water Separator | Princess Auto

Hard to beat the price. I have one from Princess Auto and it pulls oil vapour from my crossover quite well.

I have been thinking about ordering the jlt one because of where it installs. I like the look of the moroso catch can but with my coil packs I would have no where to install it using the stock hoses.

I did this to my GT years ago, and still using it today. Works awesome. I made my own with a Husky oil/ water seperator, some 3/8 rubber fuel line, and some hose clamps. Cost me half the cost aswell.
