the can is there to catch excess oil blow by that can happen on some turbo cars. normally that oil just shoots back into the intake and onto the turbo. if its a lot of blow by it can turn into blue smoke coming out of your tail pipe. installing a catch can just helps keep things nice and clean. it wont help preformance in any way tho.
