Thumbs up Jaz Mini Breather/Catch Can Information!

For those interested in the Jaz Mini Breather/Catch Can, I've put together this information...




I found mine through Froogle: (just looked for the best price)

Linky

This is the model #: JAZ-605-375-01 (For the 3/8" fittings, black can)

Manufacturer's website: Jaz's Website



Installation:

I chose to put mine just to the right of the blower. I used an old bolt I had laying around and mounted it to the wire loom cover on the firewall - the hole was already there, and only needed to put the bolt in to the catch-can from behind.

I used the factory rubber elbow on the driver's side crankcase and slipped the 3/8" line into it, then clamped it down with a SS hose clamp. Easy. Ran about 18" of line from that, behind the can, then back up to the right side fitting. Slide the 3/8" fuel/heater hose right on. It's a tight fit, BTW.

The passenger side I used the Cobra PCV valve connected to the factory rubber elbow and hard plastic line. The 3/8" fuel line I used went on with some effort. I routed that line (about 3' of it) around the heater core lines, behind the blower and fuel lines, and up to the left side fitting on the bcatch-can. REAL EASY.


Be sure to plug the following locations so you don't get any unmetered air into the intake:
  • The rear, passenger side inlet on the intake plenum
  • The line that goes back to the rear of the lower intake galley
  • The hole at the bottom of the rubber intake boot (or whatever intake elbow you're using)

That's IT!! Nothing really to it, and you'll end up with a clean install, takes all of 1 hr to do taking your time.

Benefits are:
  • No oil vapor in your intake
  • No sludge on your TB, S/C rotors or Intercooler
