oil-Catch Can Question

Does an oil catch can serve a purpose if you don't have a turbo ?

I believe they catch blow-by gasses so I would think they work on any type of motor.

Don't really think you'll need a catch can...sounds like you'd just be wasting money

It sounds like you could just put a K&N breather filter on there, unless you already do have one.

I dont think you need a cathcan then, but it never hurts to have one
