Default Added oil separator & new air filter

2016 GT Premium. Installed a Mishimoto oil separator today. Easy installation made under 45 minutes. I was a little tricky removing the old stock connector to the manifold because of the strut brace. The strut brace kept the manifold cover from being removed, so I lifted the manifold cover up against the bottom of the strut brace. The stock connector came off easily, but the new kit connector was a little tough connecting it to the fitting on the manifold. Held my tongue in a different position and the fitting clicked into position. You just remove the 8 snap connectors on the radiator cover and get easy access to the catch can to remove the bottom to emply the collected oil. I plan on doing this after 500 miles to see how much oil has been collected and adjust to every 1000 miles if the oil collected is small. Also added a AEM dry air filter and if I didn't know better, I swear I can feel a slightly snappier throttle response with the new air filter. Probably not, but the butt dyno say's it's snappier.

The new Mishimoto oil separator kit is in the left front in the pic. The kit comes with a bracket, out and in hoses that connect where the stock hose connected, clamps, screws to hold the can to the new bracket. Everything you need.

I just installed the new AEM dry air filter because I've researched many CAI's and the stock filter housing and associated tubes is a very good system.
