All my cars have had oil in the intake, 2016 Miata track car, 2008 Z06 and this Raptor as well. I wouldn't worry about much of this. Oil in larger quantities can cause pre-ignition and force the ECU to pull timing.

This one needs it.
For those here with catch cans installed, how much are you accumulating and over how many miles?

i thought a catch can was a must on these? Not working?

full race has you gut the PCV.

Something tells me that from complaints, they have modified their kit for raptors because they now have a separate part number for raptors.


I suspect that there was too much flow through the pcv system and thus it tossed a code.

I've decided that I'd prefer to keep the engine cover on because it does deaden some of the ticking sounds from the motor, so i'll end up going with someone elses catch cans.

I took my sweet ass time installing the IC, and decided to shorten the harnesses for my fogs and reroute them a little bit.

I used the ADD instructions. The ones on full race's website suck.

Everything went as expected and i'm happy with the results.

The cool part is that I stuck with the factory EBOV and the new location of it vents to atmosphere and the "out" port faces down. This should prevent any need for a weep hole. :win:

BOV VTA is great. That helps force the funk out of the cooler... especially since it is on the bottom.
