Bit pointless unless you are going for other upgrades.

Port size is a bit irrelevant tbh, just buy adapters/squeeze pipe on

I've read that catch cans with small diameter ports can do more harm than good by not flowing the gas through freely enough? I can't quite believe the ports would be small enough to build up pressure, but however neglected over time it's a possibility...

As above, there's been a few issues with people blowing the contents out all over the road, not that Piggy would know anything about that... Wink

I don't believe HDis suffer with such pressure issues as the XUD...plus on a standard map/turbo it wont cause much issue.

99% of cheap oil catch cans are roughly the same size and be up to the job

I've also got a catch tank kicking around doing sod all.

Anyone with a HDI fitted one? Can't really find a suitable place really.

Ive got a catch tank im about to fit, steps down from 25mm to 15mm and ran fine on my old car. Used it when i deleted the oil breather from the inlet to keep things clean. Worst case scenario is you'll blow your dipstick out but if you do that your engines heavily breathing

P.s im hdi
