finally got the film on. Nearside needs doing again as im not 100% happy with it.
Cool, might do that at the weekend then. My debaffled charge pipe should be here today. Fingers crossed...
Cool. You just take hold of the grill and pull. Comes out cleanly.
Badger5 Custom Map + TIP,
3”Custom exhaust, FMIC, Bosh 550’s, BC Coilovers, ARB’s +loads more.
Fit my debafled charge pipe. It was really pitted and filthy ad it was second hand but i think it polished up pretty well
Plus i now know my oil catch can is working!!

Those 300 mill catch cans are useless, far too small. I can see where yours like mine has been filled completely to the top.
Was only about a third full of condensation and aload of creamy oil that had stuck to the baffle. Doing its job really...
Depends how you have it set up. With a return to the inlet manifold and the TIP you can actually end up with a pretty much self-maintaining system, but that's too close to the stock setup for most people
I have stopped returning to the TIP (blocked off) and now just dump from the catch can into a bottle and empty that. Although I have virtually no oily deposit in mine it is however almost all condensation and fills up in less than a week, when it reaches the bottom of the baffle there is enough suction to start sucking it back into the TIP (self defeating) at which time its pointless having the catch can.
Hence my comment about it being too small , unless you are emptying it very very regularly.

If you're venting it to atmosphere then no wonder it's filling with condensed ****. As I've started, connected to TIP and Mani give you a self sustaining system, one which you will rarely, if ever, need to empty (regardless of being a small can) and one which won't vlog up with mayo either.
A little update, my forge mfic has come! Im ordering the pipe work at the end of the month and also getting drilled and groved discs all round, track rod ends and new hankooks all round. Then after ive replaced the upper boost hoses and done the n249 delete im good for the remap!!
