Catch Can for 2.3 Ecoboost?

[mattmico]

I’ve been reading a bit about adding a catch can to help reduce carbon build up. Has anyone installed one in their ecoboost?

I had a 2.3 in my Bronco and installed a UPR catch can.
I now have a RR with 3.0 and have a UPR catch can installed.
Do they work? Yes....

It was an easy 20 minute install with a 10 minute beer break.

My Hot Take

The people that install catch cans will not own their vehicle long enough to notice long-term benefits.

That's me trade every 5 years and maybe have 30k on it.

Yep. Have the UPR on my 24. Maybe 1oz of oil in it every 5k miles.

They do catch stuff, for sure. How much it will end up effecting our engines, no idea yet.


I did a catch can on my last truck for 5 years. Did it. Do anything? No idea

Ditto here. That's a lot of gunk that you won't be sending through your intake....
