Title: Eurojet MK5 GTi Catch Can
Post by: Wayners on November 08, 2009, 10:05:15 pm

Hi guys, new here and just doing a bit of research.

Does anyone know if, or has anyone fitted a Eurojet catch can to the uk/eu model cars?

Hi Wayners and a Warm Welcome to this forum!

Eurojet products, in spite of the name, aren't very common on Mk5's on this side of the pond.

One of the problems might be where to fit it as it's square and designed to go where the charcoal cannister must go on UK/Euro GTI's.

Another consideration is whether the can has internal baffles or not.

Note the filter on top of Eurojet.  This means it is a VTA system and your car will fail the MOT with it installed.

Yes, I forgot to add that I don't think that all the Eurojet catch cans are Vent To Atmosphere - It's just the only pics I could find which were ok.
