Provent / catchcan fitment kits.

Without trying to spark another flare up, did these brackets ever get done? I can see a few bits on the website. I wanted some way to mount my provent into my wifes passat.

Thanks!

Nope. The stock Provent bracket is a nightmare to make a bracket for at a inexpensive cost to suit a myriad of cars...I have put it on the shelf for now, afraid you'll have to get creative!

Any progress on this front?

Guys the Provent idea is still something I want to do, but it's a mission, and I need funds to put into R&D. Viezu will give me that, so for now, that is my emphasis. You can get Provents delivered from Western Filter and the like on e-bay for $170, which is a bloody good price, I have to buy quantity to make it worthwhile at that sort of deal, so again, I'm putting this in the mid to longer term basket. Grab them off e-bay for now.

The Provent 150 cost the same as the 200, flowed far less, was considerably poorer in it's design in my opinion, so if you have a diesel, you need to make the 200 fit - somewhere. You are right that zip ties are fine, the can just needs to be held to stop it flapping around, doesn't need structural support really.

As always, your advice is invaluable - I just wish the Provent 150 was in the same ball park as the 200 since there is so little room under my bonnet

BTW Do you see any problem if I downloaded and used the PWGPro 3.93 software from the Alientech site with my V-Switch? The Viezu branded version of PWGPro that I have is only 3.80.
Also, I will be dynoing my 3 Viezu maps vs the stock one for my 1.9 PD soon - would you like me to send you copies for reference?

Anything will fit!!!

here's mine mounted to the back of my Battery Tray:

Also the filter does not have to be replaced every 10k km but probably 50k km. so putting it where I have, only means uncliping a few sensors above it. I think it is harder to get my oil filter out the way it is stuffed in there!
