Curious about this comment. I did a tear down on my old s63 valves and noticed that while the drivers side closed tight and let no air thru at all, the useless passenger side valve seemed to close and seal completely but still let a ton of air thru when it was closed. Is that because the passenger side valve has the breather hole and the driver's side doesn't? Or is my passenger side valve defective?

If it's intended, why would they put a breather valve and one side and not the other?

Hi there can you send a PM for S63tu kit please?

[Jimoreno]

Any update on these? haven't heard anything again.

[JellyStyle]

its being worked on with Jason and Troy, standby for them to post once they are done with simulation and production.

Jelly I’m looking to purchase the kit for my 750li n63tu asap. I’m newly register here. I purchased all he listed on first page but after reading through everything I wanna see where to proceed and make sure it’s legit for me to make purchase and receive haha. Please message me or reply as soon as you can thank you!

Copy that! Thank you

[BigTbuilds]

I’m here waiting for the good news

[Jimoreno]

Is this still being worked or did it die a slow death (or sudden actually)?

1. Is this still in production? How could I get one kit for n63? Thanks

Any updates? I'll be doing VSS on my N63 in July and would love to install these at the same time. If not available I'll have to get the regular PCV stuff from BMW.

I think Jason is working on mock ups, to see what it would take to make them, then we can sell the parts they make, designed, and you can get the rest of the parts on AMazon, making it low cost for all, but enough to cover their time.

Keen to know price and when these are ready for a S63 (original X6M) too.

[Catch_Me]

Would also be very interested in this kit for an s63 when it is available! Pictures posted look awesome already.

Thanks so much Sophisticated Redneck!

Bought all of the crap listed on page 1, waiting for these illusive CNC’d parts!

Been a while; any progress or eta update?

Sounds like a number of us are holding off until we learn more. Just want to make sure it’s still going to be a reality, or if something changed along the way?

Thanks for the effort on this!

[REVELDE_89]

Yes, I too am waiting on these beautiful pieces Sophisticated Redneck!

Hello can someone please give me some guidance? My e70 x5m is in desperate need of a catch can. I know the s63 (non tu) has the connecting tube to each bank and I don’t know if that needs to be accommodated for this setup. I saw that one of the memebers sell a kit but it doesn’t seem it’s ready yet? If it is I’d love to buy it. I saw on a different thread they connected the two banks directly to each other and then ran a dual port can rather than a three port, and they did not vent back to the intake. Not sure if that’s the better setup for the s63. Please help as this post mentions the s63 but doesn’t give a definite answer on what to do. If any has done it and can post pictures I’d greatly appreciate it. Thank you

Talked w/@sophisticated Redneck this week - he is making progress. He is finishing up the final intakes, (ran out of 3D printing plastic - has to buy some more in bulk). He is close to fully refined on the PCV catch cans - and expects to get to those after the final intakes - so I'd give it a few weeks as I understand he is losing money on the intakes w/all the prototyping/etc.., so he is self-funding the rest.
Not an ideal answer, but there is progress! (I've seen pics).

You can follow his directions to the letter.. worked for me. or wait for him to come out with his. I was on a time crunch and had some issues. so I just built my own based on his directions.

punisher12b I have since followed this post as much as I can since it is a different motor in the thread and it does work, smoking has stopped and the cans are collecting oil, however I had to use different check valves as I tried tap & die the ones he linked and could not successfully do it, I have purchased 3 different check valves and all of them even with adjusting or changing/cutting springs it always reads the exact same vacuum psi of ~12-15 and it whistles just like he said. I’m not sure if maybe there is a leak or something along the way as non of the check valves make any difference nor does the adjustments and I’m totally lost as to what to do from here. Followed the guide to a T as much as I could.
