Hey guys, couple things. So my catch showed up after a month on Amazon today (only went that route because part store was 2 month wait, still spent $300 on it instead of $50 I thought it was brand name???.?) and it’s for the drivers side not the passenger like I see in most videos. Speaking of most videos I think I’ve learnt that the drivers side is the “clean” side… so why would you want a catch can there? Or did they send me the wrong can and it’s supposed to go on the drivers side…or on a 2017 is that the dirty side, or does it matter which side? Lol figured you would want the “dirty side” im so confnused now haha

if this is the unit does anyone have any instructions for me? Only thing I got is where to mount it. Ever seen one like this?

Not sure on the j&l catch cans (I did go with their cai) but they have great customer service…so give them a call…as far as the passenger/driver sides…the passenger side is the most important…I went both on my cat and the driver side does “catch” some oil…maybe be 5 or 6 drops of oil between oil changes…but that’s 6 drops less of oil going in to my intake…

I ran a drivers side for 2-3 years and never got 1 drop in it, even running higher boost.
I have heard of JLT, not J&L, is this a knock off for people who get google kidnapped?

Maybe… with how things happen in my life lol probably. I’m gonna try and send back and get the right one… in a month or two fml… unless someone can point me to a decent one that comes sooner? Amazon delivers to my spot pretty easily

An oil separator on the clean side is mainly just an air filter on a Hellcat. I can't think of why you'd want or need one there.

If you get a understanding of how the system works you might decide that you no longer want one of those no matter who made it

6 drops? Lol not worth the time or effort for the driver side for sure

This is when you know a catch can is doing its job. 4000 miles on a Tahoe.
About 1 beer worth of oil. 6 drops lol….

Yep, never knew about the whole clean side dirty side thing until this arrived and I watched a video on how to put it in. Kinda wasted a month there with this thing. Not sure why they sell them
