Were both trucks driven exactly the same for the same mileage?

Something tells me they weren't driven in the exact same conditions. Run two exact same cars on like a dyno for 100,000 miles and then show me the results.

Let me guess, Full Race also sells catch cans...

I still want to see what a 10th gen civic valves look like with or without the catch can. I have had one for 20k miles and hoping it is doing the job..
Anyone want to lend me a boroscope?

Even if those two trucks were driven in exact conditions for the same mileage, this would only prove that a catch can helps THIS engine.

this is why i opted for the 2.0L engine. Port injection, no catch can needed. :lol:
This is the worst reason I have heard for getting a 158hp/138wtq engine over a 174-205hp/162-192wtq engine from the factory.

I think we're missing the most important detail here. It's a Ford EcoBoost... :doh: Though we drive Ford's for work trucks, so I just have a hate against Ford. Such crappy trucks.

This proves nothing for all the reasons suggested. Catch cans are a total waste of money and maintenance. If they were really needed, then Honda would have incorporated them in the design etc.

Honda wants the engine to get gunked up so you pay for repairs or purchase a new vehicle
