[QUOTE="John Rathjen, post: 1432320, member: 37884"] I'll play Devil's advocate from the previous posts and opinions. A lot of the tuners will recommend a CC, because the oil vapors running back into the intake will reduce overall octane and your cpu will start pulling timing and therefore reduce power. I've had CCs on several cars, including several Mopar 5.7, 6.0, 6.4, and 6.2L motors. The oil they trap is a real thing. I bought a CC for my 6.7 powerstroke, but traded that in on my Raptor before I installed it. If you've ever seen some pics of the crap that gets into the turbo of a 6.7 you'd cringe. They can absolutely keep your intake and turbo system cleaner. Now do you NEED them? No of course you don't need them. For me I've seen the benefit and like the little bit of additional peace of mind. Also, saying that car manufactures are so smart with their engine designs that if a CC was beneficial it would have one stock, I respectfully disagree. If the engineers were so great, we wouldn't have valve cover issues, cam phaser issues, leaky sunroof issues, etc, etc, etc. Also, no one would ever need engine mods for more power, custom tunes, Bump stop kits, upgraded shocks, and other performance/suspension mods in general. No vehicle is perfect. There are always ways to improve them [/QUOTE]
