Thanks in advance Can you get us photos? If there's two ports on top, one should connect to the valve cover, the other to the intake. Since the st205 has a drain back on the stock system, if you have a lower pipe on the catch can, then it should be connected to the drain back line. |

Can you go back to the stock one?
I had an issue with the catch can on one of my engines. If I vented it to atmosphere, it would smoke out the exhaust. If I had it hooked up to the intake before the turbo, it would not smoke. |
