Oil catch can installed.

[NSXNEXT]

Not too hard. I think you'd have problems installing this using the OEM intake.

Everything fits back nicely.

One noticeable change in the car after installing the catch can is I don't see a plume of smoke when I push the accelerator to the floor. Felt like I was driving a diesel before.

Catch cans are totally worth it, especially on the GDI engines. On my 4.6 the can is pretty full when I empty it during oil changes

Here's the tubing I used. One length will take care of both sides (assuming you mount it in the same place I did).

Keep in mind the stock tubing is tapered (diff size from crankcase into the intake manifold.
I reused the stock tubing coming from the crankcase into the intake manifold. I bought a barbed connector to connect the stock tube and the new tube.

Ah sorry. No I don't remember. I'll go through my receipts and see if I can find it.

Here's what I caught since my last oil change.

It would be nice if the catch can was an OEM part. Something that was serviced during your oil change.

Agree 100%
Either that or design it like I think Audi did where there are extra injectors that wash the valves.

That would be nice, a little more that could go wrong . However the benefits would definitely out weight the problems direct injection pose.

So I just bought my catch can for my 2012 5.0r spec.. I do have stock intake. Obviously mechanics are either booked up or closed down till after Christmas so I thought I might attempt to install this myself but don't really have a good instructional video on how to do so.. your pics are the first I've seen with the catch can already installed on the same engine as mine.. is there any video or instructional help you can throw my way so I can possibly attempt this over the next couple of days ?

 

[NSXNEXT]

Based on what I saw when I had the stock intake installed, I think you'll have clearance issues installing it. Maybe someone else tried it and can help.

Yeah I'm not even sure where to connect the hoses or I'd start attempting to install it... I understand that it's the breather from the PCV valve at the valve cover and also it has to connect to the intake or near the throttle body.. not sure, I guess I'll just start pulling stuff apart and try to figure it out. I get that all it is is mounting the catch can somewhere and then connecting two tubes but I was just hoping to see a diagram or picture of where my engine the 5.0 Genesis has the hoses plugged in at before I start..

I just had a catch can installed a couple of weeks ago. Had a mechanic do it.
He used transmission oil hose for the connections, he had to use a couple of plastic elbows to make the bends required. The hardest part was mounting the catch can to the bracket after all was done. The area to work in was so tight he had to cut a piece of a hex wrench and use a miniature socket wrench to turn it. The hoses can be tucked in by the foam by the intake and the cover hides everything.
As a bonus, learned a couple of Croatian swear words....

Lol !!! Croatian cursing cracked me up.. Thanks, I needed that. Would you mind posting a couple of pics ? Where the hoses connected and how the can was mounted ?

If you look at my hoses the one that goes into the intake goes to the out port on the CC. The other one goes to the in port.
