Hi, I helped a mate fit an oil catch tank to his 2.0L NA race car over the weekend, and then when thinking about it afterwards realised I might have screwed it up!

We used a smaller diameter tube than the original (about 9mm id), so I'm scared I might have created too much ressitance in the breather now. How critical is the size of the breather on these engines?

9mm ID should be fine for a crank case breather, did you delete all the charcoal canisters and other associated crap??

All it had before we started was a hose going straight from the block to the air cleaner.
