Default MM Catch can clean side

Application: Boosted with A&A kit, stock internals, LS3, 10# psi, 595 rwhp.

Thinking of purchasing Might Mouse catch "Wild" for my boosted application. On this set up there is no provision for a clean side catch can. Staying with the current HP, is a catch can necessary for the clean side? Or would the catch can restrict scavenging affect under boost at WOT? Current clean side set up is with oil cap line to the air filter, ahead of the supercharger.

On the dirty side, will have a one way check valve on the intake manifold so your not dumping boost of it it into the can.

So under boost, the high gas blow by of the piston, is going to pushed through the clean side, and with a wild can it play, what every pressure the clean side can not handle, will be pushed through the blow off in the dirty catch can filtered check vavle isntead (into the engine bay).

So the wild can will work, but may be better with a standard dual exist port can on the clean side as well, and pipe in a blow off valve (release at about 5psi) on the extra exhaust port, and hose that down and out of the engine bay instead. This way what is being blow out that the clean side can not handle, is not just in the engine bay via the wild can isntead.

So standard catch can on the dirty side, and on the clean side dual port catch can with a simple pressure releif mode.



Remove the one exit port fitting, thread in the below 5 psi pressure valve, remove the pull ring ,connect a hose to it's back side body, then pipe that dump hose down low on the car so when it does dump blow by pressure what that the clean side can not handle in pressure, it's not going to end up in engine bay/stinking up the cabin of the car.


If you want something more fancy for a 5psi blow off valve, then here you go,

Elite can is crap IMO.
