Nice one, thinking about putting a catch tank on mine at some point. Does yours vent to atmosphere or does it recirculate back into the inlet?

**WOODY T5** · Monday 9th January 2012, 20:29

To atmosphere mate thats the point of it so your not putting the crap back into the system, i run the out pipe to about half way down my car and it vents there but you will be amazed at the gunk that is collected in the tank.

Yeah the only problem with that is I hate the smell when your sitting in traffic plus technically it's illegal, I'd probably go for an oil seperator and plumb it back into the system that way the bulk of it is collected in the seperator with the minor stuff being re-absorbed.

**Dan850r** · Sunday 15th January 2012, 22:01

well a few more jobs done today both engine mounts on and oil cooler fitted just a few jobs to do now then then back on road to test it
e.g set coilovers up check afr gauge due to 3"maf mod

**T5RPete** · Sunday 15th January 2012, 23:41

Like that Dean, loads of stuff happened since I saw it last! Very impressive

**The Flying Moose** · Monday 16th January 2012, 00:14

Looking good Dean, although I have to say I did chuckle! That massive intercooler and a huge oil cooler... it looks an absolute machine.

The question is though... all the gear no idea??? Look forward to seeing her on the track mate.

that was a nice idea putting an external oil cooler on an 850 i should do that on my 940 .thanks for the idea and your car looks the nuts now mate now lets see how she performs.

**Jim S70R** · Monday 16th January 2012, 13:28

Looking good, as said above that intercooler is massive. Looking forward to seeing this monster in action too.

**p fandango** · Monday 16th January 2012, 14:08

looks a very good kit, can i be cheeky & ask for a link. My concern would be the unions coming from underneath & being so low look vulnerable to knocks
