dont think anything we do as enthusiasts to our cars is "Needed" but we have these cars to tweak them and do upgrades too. So, needed..... no, not really, but will it hurt anything, absolutely not :tup:

Wasnt to expensive, will be very benificial, and will have a nice appearance when hood is open as i ordered them with red powder coating with white labels! Said it will be here in 7 weeks, as they are seemingly very busy this time of year, at least that is what i was told. Here is a pic of what their dual setup will look like..

How much is it for the 2 from Saikou Michi? Any discounts for forum members?

Great quality and very good customer service from him. You'll notice my alpha air/oil separator on there w his coolant tank.

But why would I want to run my oil vapors and PCV through my coolant tank??

Sarcasm just in case.

I love the way your setup came out I just haven't decided if I'm going to do catch cans yet as I haven't seen any oil usage at all in my system (like not even a little) so I'm not really sure how much of any oil I would capture in the cans if I did it. If I do in going your route, plenty of space since the intakes are gone.

Thanks bro!
Well its for preventive maintanance so that decision is up to u. In my case before i upgraded i had some small jegs catch cans on each side. Draining them became tedious and annoying af. But then again i am boosted. I got myself the alpha air oil separator for the gtr and bad it retrofitted. I dont have to drain anymore w this one.
I just wanted to make people aware of "admintuning" and that he can create custom coolant tanks and catch cans at your desired measurements.

FOrgot to update this thread :icon14: Got the kit in the mail awhile ago and finally got around to installing it a few weeks back. Fitment is excellent and the quality of the tanks and powder coating are 2nd to none! Ill upload a pic of the install... nothing fancy but gets the job done

Did you install yours on the crankcase vent tubes (rear) or the PCV tubes towards the front?

the catch can can be used as single, but usually prefered as dual, on the single you need Y connectors, cuz u have 1 catch can and two intakes.

this mod here on N/A engine only good as preventetive maintenance so your throttle bodies dont get gunk stuck to it. And you dont have to clean it so often.
