catch can noise
I installed a mishimoto catch can today. When I started the car it makes a loud sucking noise. Is that normal? Please say yes.

Not sure about this particular brand of catch can.... but I have the Elite Engineering catch can. No sucking noise on that one. I am yet to see that particular brand mentioned around here. Hopefully somebody that has the one you have can shed some light.

Noise is not normal, check your connections and make sure the catch can isn't damaged.

Not sure what can you have but check the drain port make sure it's in the closed position if it is check to see if it's sucking in air their

My elite CC makes a vacuum hissing noise. I'm pretty sure it's the nature of the rubber hoses that came with it. I'd say it's normal.

The Billet Technologies catch can is quiet, no hissing.

It's the hose. My Elite made a loud hissing sound when first installed. The hose id is not perfectly round. By rotating it on the fittings (each end) an equal amount, like 45 degrees, the hiss pitch will change. It did on mine and now it's barely noticeable with the hood up.
