Boosted + FSP Catch Can come on in
Just curious as to what others are getting out of their catch can. 2015 Z51 M7, P1SC base kit, FSP catch can (properly built, properly routed). After 5k miles or so I didn't have enough level in either side to drain out. Plugs showed sign of some oil had touched them.

Guys not good getting oil are per say any oil on the plugs. I would pull the T.B. and see what is in it if bad pull the intake also.

I have a SC C7 with an elite catch can. I've drained mine twice now and both times I drained out a very small amount of oil mixed with water, roughly a half ounce. Very happy I purchased one.

The catch can is for catching corvette owners into buying snake oil....

I checked my catch can yesterday for the first time after almost 10,000 miles with a Procharger and had less than 1/4 of an once of fluid. Mine is a custom Moroso unit. No oil in the intake. Mine is a 2015 A8 base and I hammer on it when needed or asked for.

Still man every little how ever much it is will help & not be coking it on the runners in the head on the back side of the valve's.
Again you do what you want with your car it is your. Look at it this way you have saved what ever among of $$ in not buying one of them.

I posted up my personal experience with a Procharged C7. To be honest I was super surprised with that little liquid in the can. There are others too that posted back in 2014 and 2015 stating no signs of oil in the intake and can

That tells me the can is working and letting the pressure get out of the bottom end. If it is work correct you really shouldn't have much oil in it. Just think if you didn't have it on the car with boost you would have a ton more down the intake & maybe even have a front r rear main blown out leaking oil. Robert

I'm in a 2015 M7 Z51, boosted + meth. No catch can here. Here is what my tb looks like. Too clean imo to get one.
