I hope you are joking. There is truely no reason to not just suck the oil back in the intake and burn it. I honestly do not understand why people think they need to add oil catch cans. In principle it may make a bit of sense but I feel there is a reason no mfg ever has considered them worthwhile.

There's actually quite a lot.
Hurts performance, makes things dirty, doesn't work at high rpm or during boost, messes with AFR and sensors.
For what? Emissions and no other purpose.

Better to just pull it from the exhaust if you have an open wastegate or headers.
And better to just have a atmo catch can if you have a full exhaust.

>>15104888
Everything you said is stupid. The amount of oil blow by is trivial. The whole point of the PCV is it is under vacuum. You don't normally want to just vent that to the atmosphere. How much fucking oil do you think is getting sucked through there it "doesn't work at high rpm or during boost" (factually wrong dipshit, it is connected pre-turbo to the intake), "messes with AFR" (lol, no there isn't that much oil), "and sensors" (if it was that much of an issue OEM cars would have it).

This is a solution looking for a problem that just isn't there.

No, they don't. And if they do please, prove me wrong. I have never heard of an OEM car having one.
>Have you ever opened a catch can?
No because I've never fallen for the meme. Even on my turbo car the oil in the intake is minimal and literally does not matter.

I need a better image, the idea of pumping dirty exhaust under pressure back into your oil system is asinine. I don't think you understand what you are looking at.

That just funnels the oil back into the intake. That is not a stock oil catch can. Do you understand what we are speaking of here?

A "separator with a reservoir." I know of no cars where an OEM system catches oil from the PCV system to be removed by the user. It is an aftermarket meme for a problem that doesn't exist. I am open to discussion but I think this issue is beyond your level of mechanical competence.
>>
>>15104964
Do you not understand what a venturi does? Rapidly moving exhaust pulls air doesn't push it. How the fuck do you think exhaust scavenging works?

>he fell for the back pressure meme.

PCVs are check valves anyway. The physics behind the exhaust pulling it and the intake pulling it are exactly the same.

This is all everyone did until vacuum pumps were common.
But since you need low tension cut rings to make full use of vacuum, a lot of drag and turbo cars still pull vacuum from the exhaust. When pressure is too high the check valve stops and a pop off valve springs to compensate. Same effect as an intake PCV, but without the negatives of detonation, hp loss, and carbon.
>>
>>15104982
you don't seem to have a single clue about what you are on about.
who told you what that civic has is a catch can?
or that oil seperators funnel oil into the intake?
or that catch cans can't be set up with a drain to the sump?

How the fuck am I supposed to know what nozzle is inside that intake? A simple tap would be under pressure. I don't have xray vision bud.
>How the fuck do you think exhaust scavenging works?
Probably the same way a hole in a cars exhaust is a whistle and not an intake?
>CVs are check valves anyway. The physics behind the exhaust pulling it and the intake pulling it are exactly the same.
okay so it siphons between pistons firing. who the fuck cares then, just dump it back in to the intake. I'm still not seeing an OEM system doing this, which is the whole point.
>This is all everyone did until vacuum pumps were common.
Lol, dieselfag pls
>a lot of drag and turbo cars still pull vacuum from the exhaust
no, maybe dieselfags, but no
>Same effect as an intake PCV, but without the negatives of detonation, hp loss, and carbon.
There is so little oil that none of what you says happens, that is my point. Showing me aftermarket setups doesn't negate that.
>>15104999
>who told you what that civic has is a catch can?
well considering it is pulled off the head with breather filters it is obviously a oil catch can
>or that oil seperators funnel oil into the intake?
the porsche one your dumbass googled does.
>or that catch cans can't be set up with a drain to the sump?
that would make it...not a catch can, huh?

Look dude. You are fucking running amok here.

>Its a solution looking for a problem

Go.

>>15105033
>he treats an opportunity to educate his dumb self as a competition to win or lose

Holy fuck this discussion. There's no OEM oil catch cans because OEMs don't bolt aftermarket turbos on N/A engines. Engines designed for high pressures don't have much blowing past the piston.
>>
>>15105033
No one said it provided mad horsepower, but it does help and it's just common sense to have one.
oem pcvs and oem oil traps are inadequate at best.

>show a catch can to someone who doesn't even know what one is

also that civic has a breather box not a catch can lol. probably an air oil separator built in

>There's no OEM oil catch cans because OEMs don't bolt aftermarket turbos on N/A engines. Engines designed for high pressures don't have much blowing past the piston.
Even OEM turbo engines simply draw vaccum and dump the oil back into the intake pre-turbo. OEM or aftermarket turbo doesn't matter.

As I've been saying this whole time, catch cans are a MEME.

Pretty much what I'm getting from your drivel. You're incredibly dense and stubborn if you believe there's no room for improvement on a mass produced shit box. Even expensive cars are full of shortcuts, just look at the failure prone plastic parts BMW uses in their cooling systems.
