I went with Mishimoto OCC. fit perfectly, install was 30-45 mins tops. Looks handsome. Can't yet speak to its performance. Only had it on for 600 miles, but will probably have to remove a headlight in order to empty it without a drain kit. Didn't think drain kit was worth $50, just a hose and a couple of plastic fittings. You could make your own drain kit for far less, I suppose.

As far as look, install, and fit, I highly recommend.

thank you clay for your response. I will look into mishi

Agreed with claydough. Mishimoto OCC is a nice set up. Make sure to tighten down the clamps tight, not just snug. May have air leak during boost, like in my case, until I really tighten them down past "snug".

I went with the Damond kit for my 16, easy install and comes with a drain hose

Mishi here too. No need to remove anything to drain. Not sure why some talk of headlight removal??

I used this to make draining easier, but you could just unscrew the can itself too.

I don't have a drain plug/petcock yet attached to mine, so I will need to unscrew it.. The space is very tight and my hand is too big to fit down in there and unscrew it without removing something, either the headlight or the whole can itself.

Another tip- use plumber's Teflon tape on hose fittings in an effort to combat air leak

Yea, if you put the drain valve on it's easier than trying to unscrew the can itself. Just put a paper cup under, turn the valve, and you're done. Another way to put it is with the valve, all you have to do is get one finger down there, not your whole hand. That's exactly why I did it. And I prefer this setup to some of the others mounted in the back of the engine bay with a hose hanging down. In those, oil will cling to the hose and not drain all the way out. No big deal, just not as clean.

thanks for all the replies yall

Ok, so many CC threads, I guess this is as good as any. I was under my car today, just to tighten up anything I could reach. Exhaust, IC pipes, intake, etc. So as I was going to tighten the hose fittings on the Mishi CC, I remembered posted that mentioned tightening everything up real good to avoid boost leaks. So the OEM PCV fittings are the "push and snap" type, the same that Mishi supplies with the kit.

Does anyone thing those fittings are airtight? I know that type of fitting is designed to tighten with pressure, but really wondering if they can be that airtight??

 

[808FiST]

That part appears to be airtight, in my experience, but the hose attaching to the PCV fittings with the provided worm clamp is not airtight. You have to really tighten it down, or you will get air leak during boost. You can tell if your connections are not airtight by running your fingers along the silicone tubings and feeling oil residue on them.

Ok, will do, thanks. I was really happy with my survey of everything today. All my parts are Cobb except the Mishi CC. Every fitting, clamp and bolt I looked at were tight. I am really happy with the Cobb parts, especially the exhaust and IC pipes. It looks like the day I put it on, and it sounds great with no drone. But I'm off topic here...........
