Oil catch can installed.

Thank you @NSXNEXT for this post. It was easy to follow and I was able to make it happen with the stock intake. I have had it installed for a couple of weeks and haven't had any issues.

i have stock intake and I also put the can where you did it was the only logical spot lol
I took off the piece of the intake which I believe is a intake sound reducer (piece that goes over the valve cover )and over the pvc valve if you left it on your right it would impede the return hose .
any way used a rubber cap and clamp for it
And yes the pvc hose goes from 3/8 to 1/2
So I use a 90 degree brass fitting reducer off the pvc valve worked out great hose runs along the intake mani right to the can

Hey Nolfol, hows this holding for you? I plan on doing this catch can install and like what you did there. Im assuming its a noise reducer as well since its just a hollow piece. I was able to get the lettering from the cap in your pic to see what it was in regards to size and found it here QC-101 | Fernco - Canada Where did you purchase it from? It says 1.5 inches which im sure you can buy from anywhere but when you look at the specs and the picture they have there, doesnt make sense so confused about that part. Also any advice if you did something different now that youve had it on for a couple of years?

Well I would go down to the garage and look at it but unfortunately..I no longer have the Genesis …sold her little over a year ago ( I miss it )but with 160k on her and on her third transmission ,I parted ways for a truck
I do believe it was inch and 1/2 or 1.89 there cheap and can be found at most hardware stores
Best of luck the can is necessity for this car .

oh boy....3rd transmission??? What motor did you have and how many miles? Howd the transmission fail so many times? Mine is original on 150k miles but reading all these transmission horror stories, doesn't help when once in a while feel a gear slip lol

Bought it with just over 30k and 159,680k when I traded it in ,2013 5.0 rspec
First transmission was at I think 53k then second one went at 133k all covered by Hyundai
And it wasn’t like I beat this car either I took very good car of it .
Depending on the size of your catch can …check it weekly it catches a lot

Its funny how you say you dont beat on it and are on the 3rd one where I know some people who abuse the piss outta theirs and are on the original one with 200k miles, R spec as well. At the end of the day, its a hit or miss with these. I just got done dealing with some misfires on my 13 R spec hence why I want to get this catch can installed. Had it diagnosed by my mechanic, checked coils, spark plugs, injectors, everything checked out fine. Was getting a P0307. He said the error would not move from that cylinder when he moved things around. Eventually he said, he cleaned everything up and put them back in but since he had the intake manifold off, he cleaned out the back of the valves as best he could since they were caked with carbon, well no surprise there with a 150k mile car. It wasnt no walnut blast but better than what it was before. Also mentioned i was getting lots of blow by which can cause all sorts of issues on its own. Gave me a couple of bottles on injector cleaner to put in the tank every other fillup for a few times. So far, its running good so want to install the catch can for it to remain that way. He said if it starts to misfire again, it most likely is because the injectors have their own computer and its possible thats going bad since the injector itself is fine. Ever heard of this computer he was talking about? Dont know if he was referring to the ECM.
