Oil Catch can oil updates

Hey there guys, I am making this thread because I don't just want to be throwing my post in the sea of the OCC thread.

I wanted to be able to have a thread that you guys could come to and report and show how much the OCC of your choice has helped (or not).

As an example, I made an update video on how much oil my OCC was catching.

You can see that after a few weeks to a month or two of driving, it already has a wee bit or oil in there.
Now so you guys know, I drive my car hard. I mean stupid hard sometimes. I admit this, but I have no accidents to date (Except for that one that wasn't my fault SHUT UP YOU DON'T KNOW ME!)

Anyway, if you guys have pictures or videos or anything to show that your OCC has been an actual benefit to your engine (or not if something went wrong) post it here.

I want to see what different driving styles and setups do to the amount of oil going through your car.

I didn't post mileage as I had no idea, I don't keep track of that very well and I honestly should. I'll do that from now on. But let's see what the difference is when you have a more basic set up on your car VS some of you big turbo guys or even the people with just bot ons and maybe a tune like me.

I hope this thread is acceptable.

While I understand the benefit is debatable, the OCC absolutely catches 3-4 Tbsp of liquid after each few thousand miles, in my experience.

The liquid is colored like coffee with cream and has the distinct smell of petroleum distillate.

I saw a segment on Motor Week where the guy I can't stand was talking up the virtues of OCCs on direct injected motors. Again, whether or not you put stock in any of that is up to you.

Damond can @ 4000 km, taken @ 9000 km. Used a cheap floppy boroscope through the MAP sensor location. Just stuffed it in and took what it reached.

Imgur album, click here.

I think this is 4 maybe 5000 km worth, drained every 1000 km. I actually drained it last night will update a new picture of the bottle later.



My drive consists of 13 km of highway and 5 km of suburb local streets. Rush hour will cause the return trip to be stop and go for about 3-4km on the highway, accidents will cause it to rise to more or less 10 km of crawl. Occasional heavy foot whenever possible accelerating from the on ramp to freeway speeds.
