Default Do I need a catch can

here's a couple pics of my stock TB. I just recieved my Satin S3 and when I threw it on I checked out my stocker and it has some oil but it is also 5 years old. So do you guys think I should get a catch can, I've been looking into them for a while but haven't made up my mind yet.

Dude...do yourself a favor. Get one. I would bet that you have a pretty healthy coating of oil in your manifold.

Hi
Get the Catch can - I just ordered mine. When I changed my intake, I found oil inside the manifold. My TB did not show any signs of oil.

Yeah, get it in there ASAP. My TB stays nice and clean these days. Manifold looks good too.
