OK i did try and place this guide in the Maintenance and Performance section but for some reason im not allowed to so will post it here. Mods feel free to move if needs be

Neither i nor Briskoda will be held liable for anything that goes wrong. If you undertake this process you do so entirely at your own risk!

Anyway if you aint sure what a Catch Can is for you can read here

BSH Catch Can

Ok Firstly this is the Kit you get (this is a Standard sized can kit) oh and you don't get the threadlock you buy that seperate.

Ok i had to find somewhere for it to fit so ended up choosing this location (nut and bolt you provide yourself).

There is enough clearance for the bonnet as shown below.

Next it was then a case of Fitting the Catch can in place making sure the Alternator and Timing belt had plenty of Clearance.

Next it was then fitting of the Plate and manifold block. Firstly remove the engine cover. Then remove Plastic PCV tubing by pressing in on the connectors and gently pulling out (DONT YANK) same both ends. also same for the Other large connector on the PCV

Then undo the four Screws that hold the PCV in place and keep them for later. Remove the PCV and your engine looks like this

Now fit the BSH Plate and screw into position. Be very careful otherwise you may end up needing a new Cylinder head Cover, which at the time of writing are £83 inc VAT, as i now do

Now i found it easier to silver Valve first and then apply the Plate. It is also easier to connect the Hose to the valve then connect the plate as below

Once done it is then a case of screwing in the Taps remember Threadlock. They do not require to sit flush to the plate. As the OEM Gasket provides a tight seal and there is not much pressure going through there so they wont pop off.

Once that is done . Install the Manifold block off. Very simply push on end Make sure holes have cleared the lip and then instal screws. They go hand tight DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.

Now it is just a case of cutting the hoses to the correct length and attaching to relevant connector (right tap to top of can left tap to middle of can) and Voila all done

As you can see still plenty of clearance

Be aware the taps do not need to be fitted flush to the plate and the plate will not sit flush properly to the Cylinder Head cover.

Any questions feel free

Good write up. I'm still wating for mine to arrive, I ordered the high capacity can so will post up some pics when fitted.

You might struggle due to the size of the can. It's Five times more capacity than mine.

Like them cars with the can of Red Bull on the top :D

Lol, I have already checked the size etc. It should fit between the passenger headlight and battery as I still have a standard airfilter.

Quote from BSH

"The standard slim can is 6.5" Long and 2" round. It maintains 7 fluid oz capacity. The larger can is 8.5" Long and 3" round. It maintains 32 oz of capacity."

"you don't get the threadlock you buy that seperate."

Is that the NATO Stock Number I can see:rofl:

Here are some pics of the BSH High capacity catch can I fitted at the weekend. It differs from your kit slightly as there are no 90 degree elbows for the BSH plate. Also there were no jubilee clips with mine so I have temporarily fitted some cheap zinc plated ones, will replace with stainless steel at a later date.

Also, spoke to my insurance last night and it makes no difference to my policy as it doesn't increase the performance.

If you have an aftermarket induction kit it may not be possible to fit your can here
