Yes -AN 10 hose

The JLT looks really nice. I used a commercial Air Filter from Princess Auto and tubed it in to see if I would get much oil. To my surprise I do catch about 1/3 cup of oil between changes. Most forums say you won't really catch anything unless your car is SC but mine is stock. I like keeping that oil mist out of the CAI and the TB seems to stay cleaner.

I havn't purchased one, honestly havn't done any motor mods at all, but I've heard the jlt or any of them don't catch everything. Some guys at S197forums.com actually have to in series or just put vents on the heads instead.

The type of hose is important. I originally used some 5/8" Goodyear rubber heater hose. I figured it was going to mostly air inside so it should work. Wrong! After a few months I noticed that this tubing was 'sweating' oil all over the outside of the hose. I replaced it with clear plastic tubing and that is working well and I can see what's inside the tubing although it is yellowing a bit. There is a small accumulation of oil around the fittings (elbows and connectors) as well as in the catch can of course. Interesting to see.

I tried a few different types of hose, they would either collapse or sweat oil. Finally went with hard tubing (same as the original PCV hose) & reused the factory fittings. Just used a little heat to custom bend it.

Little bit of an old thread, but ill add my experience here.

I've ran JLT and Steeda cans on my drivers side. Both trapped oil very well. I have also ran breathers...what a mess, slobbering oil out of the passenger more so than the drivers side...I assume because of the PCV valve in the drivers head stopping some of the oil.

I finally went back to a UPR catch can on my passenger side and a vent on the drivers side. I did this when I added the procharger, what I found was I was still getting oil into the system, so I hooked up my Steeda down stream of the UPR can. Its working very well now.

Maybe with non blown applications a vent set up will work better...but with forced induction I wouldn't recommend venting.

my 2 cents

Thanks for the input.

I am looking at a JLT mainly due to the plug and play factor with the hoses and connectors.
What are your thoughts on the JLT seeing as you had one?

Thanks

Go with JLT The one I have on the passenger side of my car looks great and actually catches oil I have the driver side on order right now.. I think they were the originator.
