It is extremely easy to do you can do yourself but if you want done oil catch can Scott about a hundred and twenty dollars labor should be very little doesn't take long maybe $50 at most.. call jannetty racing if on east coast

We've developing a special oil separator which has a larger body, specific to the needs of the C7 and other DI engines which really benefit from good PCV filtration. I will post it up, and install it soon. It is a prototype for now, we'll see how it does.

Does the C7 have a separate clutch reservoir like earlier editions had? Unlike Camaros...

I figured it fit in dealing with drivetrain issues.

BMW is only seeing it for cars that are run only around town, never get to temp and babied so they never get above 3k. Get the catch can, but wring it out regularly too....

We are working on a C7 application for the Apex Motorsports catch can. More info coming soon.

bought a rotofab intake on my ZL1..stupid breather tube snapped off on the top during install, didn't want a vacuum leak so installed a catch can which replaced the breather tube anyway and now works to keep oil off my valves and out of the intake tract...couldn't be happier with my catch can purchase

I bought a Moroso catch can which is documented as one of the best, but the Apex one that just came out looks pretty slick too and seems easy to clean!
