also, on that note, does that mean i can go ahead & install it before i get the blower on, or will i have to take it all apart & reroute stuff to install the blower?

The top mount SC's are an integrated unit that the blower & intake manifold form one integrated unit so the vacuum source does not become pressurized uner boost like a turbo or front mount would because they use the intake manifold. Yes you can install it now and simply switch the hose routing when you go KB. :thumbs:

Yes it should have. It is a Metric standard thread, M8 or M10 (cant remember right now.) App. .20cents from any hardware store. Our appologies.

Do you have to tap into both intake pipes for twin turbo setup or can you just use one for the fresh air source?

i saw on the website you have purple. does anybody have a pic of one in this color?

MVP'S ZO6 05-11-2011 11:15 AM

My catch can came in yesterday. It appears to be of great quality and appearance. I can't wait to get this thing on my new setup. It looks like it will catch a ton of oil. It's huge! :D

The Bat Car 05-11-2011 11:25 AM

The larger the more effective as it allows the flow to slow enough for the oil droplets to fall out of suspension w/out being "pulled through" like the smaller ones. :thumbs:

MVP'S ZO6 05-13-2011 03:22 PM

where does the breather go? does it take place of the oil cap? That's what it looks like.

The Bat Car 05-13-2011 06:25 PM

Yes it does. It has an integrated checkvalve to help prevent fumes from escaping into the engine compartment. :thumbs:

JT FRC 00 05-25-2011 06:31 PM

A&a sc kit
 
When ordering the dual valve can do I need to specify it's for the A&A kit yet or will need to modify the bracket still? Just curious. Looking at getting the polished version so I'm guess I'll receive it in about a week? Not only does this product look good, will serve a purpose!:yesnod: I swapped intakes earlier and was amazed with how much oil was in there!

SinisterC6 05-29-2011 04:05 PM

I have your dual catch can installed on my centri setup

I just checked my catch can and there was no oil in it, I installed it about 1000 miles ago and have been driving moderately hard.

Is there a special method to draining it besides opening the valve on the bottom?

Could my issue be that its mounted where my battery used to be?

The Bat Car 05-29-2011 06:32 PM

Make sure the drain valve has been closed (the threads all the way out when you look at it) and if possible can you post some close up pics of the hose routing? When draining, have the motor hot and not running. Open the drain so the threads are all the way in and not visable. It takes app 5 minutes to drain properly.

That was my problem, I expected oil to poor out, I left it open and got about a tea spoon. :thumbs:

slow05 06-03-2011 11:56 AM

Bat Car, I am installing the dual valve catch can on a C6 Z06. Should I tee the fresh air from the can into the existing line from the s/c inlet to the dry sump? I am assuming then the crankase connection goes to the valley nipple. The connection to the intake(vacuum source) is understood.

Thanks for any help:crazy2:

The Bat Car 06-03-2011 02:58 PM

PM me your email & I will send the master diagram file and you can share pictures so I can better guide you. :thumbs:

CNC Ported Throttle Body Dynographs - 2010 Chevrolet Corvette GS
 
http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?s...8.290698632469

http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?s...15.36075534753

Both these links are off our Facebook Fan Pages, please do "Like" them. TIA.

I've uploaded dynographs of our CNC ported TB on a 2010 Chevrolet Corvette GS A6 that is completely stock with 1200 miles on the clock.

The first set will show the temperature that day taken from an iPhone and then the two back to back runs with A/F without the ported TB.

The second set will show the temperature that day taken from an iPhone and then the two back to back runs with A/F with the ported TB.

The car was driven after the ported TB was put in for about 5 miles before dynoing it today.

The HP/TQ gain is low compared to others that have dynoed with our same ported TB but the result was still very positive as the goal is to provide upper more crisp throttle response in the mid and upper RPMS. Note all cars are different due to mileage, etc. etc. so your gains will be more or less.

If you have questions, please do ask.

You can purchased these CNC ported TBs here ...

Ive got a stock question about something other than catch cans. :D Do you guys have the prothane motion 10mm six shooters in stock?

AngryTurtle 07-12-2011 10:53 AM

Do the throttle bodies come with the electronics?

The Bat Car 07-12-2011 11:50 AM

Twovalve....pretty sure we do, but call or email Young directly (I do tech support, not the sales) at: BYUNSPEED@aol.com

Gidy,

All except the LS1/6. On them you simply swap your TPS & acuator motor from your stock unit when you recieve the VMax CNC unit. Every other TB has it all integrated into the TB. :thumbs:

TwoValveKid 07-12-2011 12:24 PM

Got it. Thanks!

mig1980 01-04-2012 09:34 PM

Do these come with all hoses needed to connect? Are there any installation guides for a ls1 with a vortech A&A SC? Is there a special bracket needed to install with my SC aside from the bracket that is welded on?

mig1980 01-09-2012 01:55 PM

We do not just sell the brackets. If you bought it used you may want to modify it yourself to fit.

mig1980 01-16-2012 09:26 PM

Are the brackets welded on or should it have come with a second piece. I see a welded bracket but not sure if that is it.

dreamscometrue 01-19-2012 01:07 PM

Does anyone have any clear pictures of the three line can installed with an A&A with labels on where the lines go?

I understand it comes with a bracket but is it the welded on piece or is it a secondary piece? I would also be interested in a diagram for install on an A&A vortech kit as the member above mentions.

mig1980 01-23-2012 02:19 AM

You still have not answered my question about the bracket or mine and dreamscometrue question about install instructions. It's like pulling teeth with you guys for information. Why is that? I have pmd you about this and have even tried to email you about it. So far I have no concrete answer on the bracket or the install manual.

COSPEED 01-23-2012 02:35 AM

Post up your order number so we can look up which can and bracket you bought. Thanks.

mig1980 01-23-2012 12:50 PM

I explained to Colorado Speed in email and also on this post as well as another post I had created earlier that I purchased the can new but from a forum member. I have sent you pictures of it via email but can send another email with pics if necessary.

These catch cans come with a specific LS head bracket, catch can and hoses. If you bought this used, you will need to contact the seller about any missing parts that they did not give you.

Are you telling me you can't sell me a bracket for my A&A SC kit on a catch can that you guys sell? I explained to you guys several times that the seller misplaced the bracket. This is a lot of hassle over a piece of metal. I can't understand your customer service techniques.

I am not asking you to give me the bracket for free, simply tell me a cost shipped.

We spend a bulk of our time on the phone and e-mails supporting our customers who have bought direct from us and it's only fair to them they get first support. We just don't have the time anymore to support products bought used which we seem to get a lot here. Which is why we specifically state in most of our posts "If you have any questions, please do e-mail us or call us as we may not be readily available on Corvette Forum to answer questions you may post here."
You never told this to us or we either missed it. Either way, send an email over to us and we'll price out a bracket and get you settled once and for all. Thanks.

The RX can is the only unit available that has integrated positive closing poly check valves & self regulates the amount of flow eliminating oil pull-through during deceleration from WOT runs.

The cans are nearly 1 qt capacity, have a unique disc baffling system and perforated dispersion tube to ensure the vapors not only cool quickly to droplets, but the large separation chamber allows the flow to slow enough for the droplets to fall out of suspension trapping it before the vapors travel a final passes through a separate exit chamber and out the integrated checkvalve.

The dual valve unit is the ONLY one on the market that ensures continuous crankcase evacuation no matter what the operating mode. In boost or not, the dual valve unit detects the moment the intake manifold becomes pressurized closes preventing the boost from pressurizing the crankcase, and opens the valve allowing the FI head unit inlet to provide the vacuum needed for continuous evacuation.

Remote drain tube makes emptying simple & mess free.

Optional breathered oil fill cap with built in oneway check valve.

Available in most popular GM colors or polished aluminum.



RX Performance "MONSTER" Stage II Oil Catch Can

http://www.coloradospeed.com/images/.../RXPMSIICC.jpg

The RX "MONSTER" oil catch can is for the huge boost built applications and works unreal well at providing proper crankcase evacuation under boost and non-boost operation AND separates all or nearly all detectable oil from the vapors.

This catch can is large and not for the average street build, 4" wide x 7.5" high with triple baffleing and good to 1200 HP turbo or front mount SC.

This is the ONLY one that provides proper crankcase evacuation and oil separation during both boost & non-boost applications. Do it right and avoid the blown seals & oil mist all over your engine compartments as well as the long term accelerated wear to your engine internals by NOT evacuating properly.

Well ok, if you want to be specific. I ordered mine on feb 21. I was told 1-2 weeks (which would have still got it on my car before i dynod it on march 15th) and its now been a month.

Also, sicne i drive an 01ZO6, im a little confused on what year model to purchase. I will be using my valve covers but im pretty sure the valley cover on the LS3 is the LS2? Ahhh help:willy:

I wanted to order a catch can for my Z06 due to the fact I had a few questions before ordering. I called Elite Engeneering and left a voice mail requesting a return call. The following day I finally received a return call, however I missed the call because I was right in the middle of something at work and unfortunately couldn't answer the phone. Since then I have left three voice mails and two emails with no reply to either the voice mails or emails I sent over the last three days. Now it's the weekend so I'm sure I won't hear anything till Monday if I hear anything at all. This is pretty poor customer service if you ask me. Ridiculous and frustrating for sure. I'll be looking at alternatives and more than likely ordering with another manufacture this weekend. It seems Elite has no time for me! Thanks for nothing.

NVNO1 09-27-2014 11:58 AM

It actually has nothing to do with Cospeed. I apologize if it seemed that I was angry with you guys because that is not the case. I should have posted somewhere else. My apologies. I see you guys carry the RX cans. I may order one of those after I read up a bit more on them. My car N/A.
