        Also better express my interest in one of these. If any of you guys reading this have never had your intercooler off, take it off when the engines' warm, and pour out the sludge that's in there. While it's off, stick a new o ring in and do the Mark H Mod (70-60mm reducer hose to stop those boost leaks) while you're at it, then grin as you see your boost levels restored

          Yup, me too. Is there any benefit between using the Mocal one over the one Ben has,or vice versa

              Not too sure, only time will tell once Ben has got round to fitting his.
              Also if its a 3B there are space issues because of the Battery tray.......

                Could be, we'll just have to wait to see how many are interested, and then maybe post something in the GP section....

                          Main difference between bens and the mocal is:

                          Mocal is just a 'catch tank' so the oil vapour is puked into the catch tank and with most peoples setup it drains back to the sump but isnt under vacuum in the same way as the standard setup.

                          Ben's is a cylcone so inside his there is a baffle which the oil vapour hits and condenses against, this drains back to the sump and the air cleaned of oil vapour connects back to the stock location keeping the vacuum setup as audi intended.

                            What sort of cost are these to buy along with all the fittings needed?

                              I'm at work at the moment but I'll sort out some details/pictures etc for you all tonight.

                              @Greg, I ordered the hose from ThinkAuto in the end. Still waiting for it to arrive though.
