Default Stopped by ECS

Stopped by ECS last min today, got a AMW catch can and had it installed. The boys and the lovely Kristy were hard at work as usual making dreams come true. I think this mod had Doug up against the fence , he had to break out the instructions Thanks again

Looking at your pictures you have the hoses backwards, the fitting on top of the can comes from the pcv valve the one on the side goes to the throtle body Looking closer it's right sorry

It looks like it is on upside down. J/K !!! They installed one on my car last time I was at their shop. Very clean set-up.

There are times where I'm a bit more motivate but after working 2 months of OT I figured why not treat myself. Not to mention, if your timing is right you might get lucky and see some really neat things happening like Chris latest hair do. Going to the shop is like going to a roasting party.....someone is always taking a beating

My C5 coupe is at ECS awaiting a 383 stroker and a few other upgrades for HPDE and related track activities! Chris expects to have it done by Thanksgiving - I can't wait - performance and reliability should be awesome when completed! I also have the AMW oil catch can and asked that it be moved to where yours is located in the pic.
