Top Secret oil catch can Installed
 

Hey guys so updated progress, finally managed to get down to installing the Top Secret oil catch cans. Now i was debating on whether to install them my self at home ( i have no mechanical or anyother skills for that matter :roflpuke2: ) Or have a shop install them for me. Well finally after being bored out of my mind i decided to pass by the hardware store buy some tools and take a shot at installing them. Before this i would like to give a shout out to Paul of Baker Tuning, for hooking me up with these, as well as letting his tech make a little write up on how to install and he even labeled the outlets of the catch cans clearly writing which one has to be connected where, and he even went out of his way to cut each individula the rubber hose to the exact measurement, so you could say half the work was already done for me, thanks for Baker Tuning :tup:

Looks: These are top quality pieces, very beautiful titanium burnt finish, just love the way that they look when the engine heats up and i pop the hood open, once the catch cans heat up, the titanium burn really gets this rich color just beautiful pieces. They defiantly give my engine bay that extra bling, they go great with my top secret intakes couldnt be any happier with this set up.

Installation: As i mentioned above i have 0 experience in this kinda stuff, but managed to install them my self ( of course with the help of my friend chmaid looool ) but he only adjusted the pipes after the install, i would have to say the most annoying part was needing to relocate the fuse box and zip ting it to the bottom near the wheel base to make room for the catch can on the right hand side, it was a tight fit but managed to get it done. Other than that the install was pretty straight forward, tighten the catch cans to where they are suppose to, connect them to the right in lets and bam there you go, btw these catch cans connect to the PVC of the intake, as oppose to the other ones that i saw installed on our cars where they connect to the intake manifold, guess that the top secret are set up differently, As you can see from the pics it very clear to where the cans connect to.

over all i am very happy with the way they came out, install was very straight forward, and it didnt hurt at all that Paul from Baker tuning was more than happy to assist me by phone when ever i needed any help with install, great customer service there, hope you guys enjoy the pics :tiphat:

WOW looks great:tup: i relocated mine but ill show pics on that later i didnt use the tube connecting the two catch cans:ughdance:

ohh cool looking forward to ur pics, what is the difference between the different connections? which one is the better one?

now all you need is the top secret Titanium Strut Tower Brace

What do you think of Top Secret's SRI? What kind of number's are you putting up?

Honestly I love them, they were installed wrong when I first put the on, as the MAF sensors were facing side ways but still the intake performed well, now after adjusting the sensors and installing them right I truly am feeling the power gains and responsiveness of the car is unbelievable every time I just touch the oedle I feel the car wants to go, and car is still un tuned can't wait to tune it

If you don't mind me asking how much did you pay for the Top Secret SRI? I saw somewhere that it was $1,100 for the Top Secret SRI. There was a comparison b/w the Top Secret SRI & Stillen G3.

Looks great, but I would highly recommend using a black or tinted hose. Oil residue will eventually coat the inside of the tubing and cause it to turn a nasty shade of brown. Happened in my old STi.

Thanks for your advice, yeh I am gonna make the switch to silicone hoses probably as they look nicer swell as being more durable

Yeah, some colored silicon hoses could look real nice.

I got mine from Baker too. They are super nice.

I am glad you are happy with them.

Thanks,
Paul

thanks Paul :D Tower bar up next loool

I want the full Top Secret intake setup... but I'm deathly afraid of the price. Only intakes I wanna buy. Don't want to cut up my 40th for the Stillen G3s, plus have to pull off the bumper to check my filters.

I thought they were around $2000, but I'd highly consider if they're around $1100. I know that's obscene for intakes, but I don't really care. It's Top Secret. lol

Catch cans are sick man! I may add those too, but go with different hoses.

looks great!
