yes i think it is just easier and cheaper. also i think looks better under the hood, less stuff in there to cramp up the engine bay, but thats just me.

Has anyone ever had their car damaged from NOT putting in a catch can or a breather setup? Honestly isn't the car designed to have some blowby in the first place?

Not saying this is a worthless "mod" but I have to wonder just how important this can be when the car was essentially designed to ingest some oil in the first place.

I'm a big believer in the catch can. Every car I've ever run with breathers has eventually returned to dousing my engine bay with a liberal coating of oil.
