Hi :)

2 problems with that for a 928... the pipe size is miles too small and nowhere to fit it :)

I actually use one for my Nitrous...its a plastic shampoo bottle lol...works though :)

All the best Brett :)

Hi :)

Yes sort of..it depends if you blow oil smoke on either hard acceleration or decelleration.. IF you do it will improve it DRASTICALLY...

If they will alter the size to much narrower (roughly 3 inches wide by 12 inches high) it will fit down the right side of the rad (standing in front of car) for a 16v engine you would only need 1 pipe going in but it would have to be around 20 mm...

I would be interested in one if they would.....

All the best Brett :)

Does your car use a lot of oil, or blow smoke?
