    Yeah, but that's just more work I gotta deal with. So I'd rather make more 'friend' if you know what you I mean. :D

    I went to a random smog station and they passed me with OCC mounted up top and oily clear braided hoses exposed. I guess it just depends on the technician.

    Hybrid Pit got me with that mounting bracket. I believe the mounting bracket was machined made by @Burna J

    So here it is, the oil inside the catch can after about 5k miles. Without the OCC, these oil would have gone back to your engine. Btw, I did the EGR and OCC installed back in April (had around 88k miles, now I'm at 93k miles).

    Picked up an Injen Intake from a fellow prius modder. (he had a pretty clean pip) also have some Tien Coils that I picked up from a diff guy on CL that were never installed. I ended up needing to buy new tires so the Coils have just been sitting but the intake should be going in this week. Had to order that little rubber thing to help with the vibrations while connected to the motor along with a new filter.. Probably didnt need to get a new filter but I wanted it to be more "new to me" :cool:

    Does this improve the fuel mileage?

    I haven't seen mine get dark like that. winter is when it fills quickly but looks like a cappuccino in color, milky brown. summer it catches some oil but not much and looks like fresh oil.
