That looks great under the hood! CC and Vara is what I wanna do too. Are those both easy installs? Im not a big wrencher (no shop and lack of tools).

I installed my catch can and all I got to say is wow! This thing catches all kind of oil. I put it on before a long haul, 2400 miles one way towing a 4000 pound trailer, and man am I glad I did. I checked it ever other fill up and it was half full, that was even after I changed the PCV valve. On the way way home, another 2400 miles home empty, it still had some oil in it but not as much.

I am still trying to figure out why these Hemi's do this?

I installed mine earlier this week and barely over 100 kms I had a noticeable amount of oil in the bottom of the can.

By not having a catch can on my 2014 Ram Sport, am I doing it harm, or is this just something needed for the guys/gals that drive the trucks hard and tow stuff?

Another question. If these CCs are catching unused oil/gas and keeping it from the injectors, I am guessing that oil will need to be replaced into the engine? Of course use new oil and not the stuff from the filter, but the CC will cause the engine to "use oil", in a way now?

No because it was just getting burned off/stuck to the inside of your intake manifold before you started capturing it.
