Installing a $16 Budget Catch Can on my 2022 Hyundai Elantra N

[@N-Krazy1976]

add a 3/8" straight connector between the new line and the factory 3/8" to 1/2" elbow

Great job! I cannot justify paying 2-3 hundos for a freakin catch can. I have a ebay bought $20 catch can install on my built BMW F10, and does the job perfectly! lol

Nice! You could use push lock air hose fittings and with one of them as a 90 degree get em routed together leaving the separator . I have totally been delaying installing my 60$ Ali Express generic.✌️

Thanks for the comment and idea! Get on yours and help stop that oil from building up down the line!

[@N-Krazy1976]

Use the factory 1/2" elbow and use it instead of the straight pc

[@CKDESIGNS]

Yup and just use a 3/8-3/8 barb….but…I want to keep the factory piece as it is for easy swap back to stock. I’m just ocd like that. For others that don’t mind that is a great solution.

Hey man thank you for this guide I installed a cheap catch can as well. Question: I mounted my can to the coolant reservoir like you did but stripped the threads on the body of the car. I figured it out with some zip ties and 3m tape but I’m wondering if you know how to rethread them? Also thank you for the PCV explanation. I bought the one way valve and didn’t end up using it because it felt cheap.

[@CKDESIGNS]

You could try to re-tap the threads with the same size tap and die and maybe clean them out. Chances are you will need to drill out and re-tap/die to the next size up.

Did that bracket come with the can? I didn't see it pictured with the can on amazon

Any extra turbo lag? Need to pressurise hoses and can?

[@tenkayruanaya2554]

im gonna do that instead of paying 250$ the point is to get the job done

[@CKDESIGNS]

I don’t drive much and have been checking it. I see some oil on the baffle, and you will notice a minor noise under the hood from the air turbulating. I’m thinking of how and where to add the steel wool. Stay tuned to see how this thing is holding up!

[@Jfresh55]

Idk, i installed this on my veloster and it collects a ton of oil

[@magg992008]

Any update? How much oil you catching?

[@CKDESIGNS]

It catches a few ounces every few months. Super black watery in consistency. Definitely stuff you don’t want to burn off and dirty up your engine. I do more highway cruising than average so I imagine it will catch more if your heavier footed. I also recently added steel wool to the canister to see if it can help. So far it does not make much of a difference so I will probably just remove it. As much as I would love to make an update video, these videos just aren’t worth the time they take anymore. But thanks for watching.

[@magg992008]

@@CKDESIGNS excellent thanks for the update details!

[@CKDESIGNS]

@@magg992008I should also mention it catches carbon flakes/chunks. This also comes with a brass “stone” filter which can help catch even more, but I chose to remove it for pressure reasons. Either way a definite must for direct injection engines to save from the faster buildup of engine deposits.

[@CKDESIGNS]

Let’s see what you got.

[@glenparks5175]

Would u put some steel wool in there to filter

[@CKDESIGNS]

I’ve thought about it numerous times. It would help to capture more oil I imagine. Not sure it’s worth the risk of some stew wool possibly getting to the engine with my luck lol. Maybe get a good brand one.

Catch can does work just need to monitor during the winter season as it can collect water
