Catch Can for the Pentastar?

Kidder · 11-11-2012, 01:51 PM

So, I've got a BT catch can on my Ram Hemi. I have to admit, I'm not as familiar with the Pentastar. I see BT has a catch can for the Pentastar with the fender mount. So, what are the opinions? I did a search on "catch can Pentastar" and came up with nothing.

There are a lot of catch cans out there that would work. All you have to do is determine how to mount it, fab a mount, get hoses, fittings, etc...and make it fit. BT's price includes all these items already figured out for you.

So, those with catch cans for the Pentastar, post up your pics!

BT sent me some pics but I'm not quite sure how it mounts to the fender. I will have to check out the car tonight to see if I understand. Also, can anyone tell me if there's any cons to the catch can being tucked in the left, front corner of the engine bay? That's a lot more hose than on my Hemi. I would figure since everything is sealed, it shouldn't be an issue.

The shorter the hose runs the better. The hot, oil mist laden air will cool and the oil will settle in the hose and not the catch can.

Unless the hoses run down to the fender

A picture would tell all though...

I too asked the same question some time back as I was looking for one for my 11 300C. Unfortunately for me BT states that I cannot install a BT catch can with the stock air intake installed, so I looked into the fender mount option that BT sugested. In my opinion it looks harder to empty and it looks out of place compatred to the other options availbe for those that have an aftermarket intake.

Here's a pic of a fender mount on a Hemi

For those of you considering installing the BT Catch Can for the 3.6 Pentastar on your 300, you will need to wait. I tried to install mine over the weekend and there is a difference between the 300 3.6 and the Charger. BT used the Charger to test fit everything. So, BT is going to borrow a 300 and get the issue resolved. I took pictures and discussed this with someone at BT and they see the issue. It shouldn't take them long to come up with a solution.

FYI.

That's good news!

Now only if they would figure out a bracket to fit a stock 5.7
