Question Oil Catch Can, on Third Gen TL, questions

Hey Everyone,

If there is a thread on this already please feel free to link it, I searched for it but to no avail. I am wanting to install an Oil catch can on my 2005 Acura TL sport 6 speed. so I have a few questions.
  1. Is there any point when the car is N/A?
  2. If so, where on the engine do I connect the lines? I know the 2 spots on the top left of the front valve cover, and left on Intake Manifold, but is there anywhere else?
  3. Where would you recommend installing the catch can?
  4. Is there anything I need to be aware of if I do install a catch can?
Thank you for your time

P.s. Delete the check valve on your slave cylinder, the car will shift so much better, and engage quicker.

i had a catch can on my 2007 infiniti G35 coupe. I cleaned it with every oil change and it was always nasty.
It makes more of a difference with GDI engines because no gas hits the valves to clean them off so preventing that nastiness from going in there in the first place is a big plus.
in my opinion it will just make you feel good that that isnt going into your engine. did it hurt anything in the first place? no
