High Miles and ohh so dirty
I removed my throttlebody today to replace it with a larger one and I was discusted how dirty it was. The amount of crap flowing into the intake is CrAzY. I have not had it off before but I have wiped it out a little when I put on my CAI when I first installed it last year. I will be looking into a catch can or something very similar very soon. I took some pictures

If it can be done then all one would have to do is make a new butterfly and reinstall it.

Tomorrow is fine.
I have been thinking of making my own catch can, there are a lot of DIY's on the net such as this one that looks neat.

its possible but any bigger and you'd need to port the flange on the intake manifold
and without any more mods the 72 is more than enough, look into injectors and a v8 maf first

Re: High Miles and ohh so dirty
the catch can is simple, plug the line on the maf elbow. run all 3 lines from the breather covers to the can. Im mounting mine near the brake master. Im not going to run it back to the intake because crankcase pressure will force everything into the can and i dont want and oil vapors going back into the intake tract. makes for cleaner air, more efficient combustion, etc.
im also deleting the air injection and the egr valve

you dont need a vacuum source when you're venting the catch can to atmosphere

This is not a honda, I have done that to honda's before and it works on that just fine but not the crossfire
