    Oil catch can diy?

    Whats up guys every DIy i find for oil catch can setups are either just text or Pics on a Vw which confuse me. My pcv valve is well crap i believe and would rather run a catch can, then replace the valve. Also deleting all the vacuum mombo jumbo would be great as well.

    I've got mine setup using 034's Block breather adapter -> run a line to catch can -> The output of the catch can goes to the pancake valve (To retain some vac source to the crankcase) and then the pancake valve goes to the TIP

    Vac ports capped off, and Walky_Talky20's vac cleanup DIY guide was performed before the catch can. I might also mention I just used heater hose and deleted the hardline. I will likely run braided line later when I can afford it and re-incorporate my billet 034 valve and vac source. I've noticed slightly higher crankcase pressure, which I dont want.

    I'm also a 2000 ATW guy
