I would not say it does not...whens the last time you looked in your intake?

1. Do I need a catch can, and if so, where do I get one?

2. I've read where the MDS can be disabled. I checked for what Mike mentioned below to someone else within the 'how to disable MDS with predator?' topic and couldn't find anything on my handheld regarding that specifically. Does my handheld even have this option?

mikel wrote:Under modify tune, select modify parameters, then disable MDS and reinstall the tune.


3. Also, if I can disable the MDS will I approximately get the same MPG I received prior to installing the tune I have currently? I ask this because DiabloSport claims increased MPG using the canned tunes, so if I kept the MDS intact I would indeed recieve an increase in MPG, but if I disabled the MDS I still would get an increase in MPG comparatively speakng, right?

I may have more questions later, but this is all I have for now.

Thanks!

2. Yes. Select the tune, go to modify tune, go to MDS, disable, then press esc. until it asks if you want to install the tune.

3. Your theory is correct, although driving style is the biggest contributing factor to mileage gains/losses.
Are these the catch cans you're referring to?

Don't think anybody does a 6.7 stroker, so it must be a typo. They do 6.4L, 7.0L and 7.2L.

Hey guys, you shoulda let me BETA these before you released them too. Got a problem. With the new bracket design, the hose barb hits the PCV barb on my intake. Theres no way to sit it upright. Its gotta be angled.

The extension pipe needs about 2" more length to it for clearance. I'm letting BT know the same thing.

Actually these were tested,but it looks like you have a different intake then the jeep we had.Are you refering to the fitting on the actual intake?Because the PCV hose is the hose on the left in the pic going to the actual PCV valve.

Would a longer hose fix the problem?So you could route it under it?Thanks for the heads up..Im sure we can correct it..

BTW If you rotate the fitting on the left to point down you can use your factory PCV hose..Helps make that bend a little easier.

Yep, the fitting on the intake is the problem. Its not the PCV thats the issue, I just naturally call the intake barb that. Its the valve cover breather tube.

No amount of extra hose solves the problem because the fitting on the catch can and the fitting on the intake hit each other. Like I said above, an extra 2" on the spacer tube would solve the problem.

Is that the stock CAI? If it's aftermarket I suppose you could say it's the CAI that's fubar'd instead of the catch can :).
Can the fitting on the catch can be rotated to point downward a bit or is it permanently in that position?

Nah, its a BWoody 4" CAI. Its the one 90% of use with more then basic bolt ons.

The catch can fitings can be rotated, but that won't help. It'll still hit.

I've just been told that theres a clearance issue with the Volant intake on the Jeep SRT8 too.

Out of curiousity, what intake did the tester have? I have an aFe sitting here, wonder if that'll hit too?
