I think the recaros are the only ones that fit in the S without modifications. PP are awesome but as others have said the harness holes are rather low, which is a shame. I was really hoping they would redesign them after they got their FIA cert revoked, but that doesn't seem to have happened.

and apparently they come with some sweet streetglowz led light strips on them.

Yea that oil system "fix" looked like a huge PITA... so I wasn't excited about trying it.
What moroso can are you running? is it easily drainable? I got a ton of blow by in 9 at summit when I took my AP1 there, so I"m not doing that again until I get something set up.

I've only been to Summit Main once, but postman said I was blowing a cloud of smoke on turn 9/10. This was before I had the catch can setup. I don't have the part # of the moroso can off hand but I'll find it. It sits nicely down low which makes it easy to reach, here's a couple shots I just snapped in the garage. I tidied up the lines a little while ago with some plastic 90 degree fittings:

Edit: Pretty sure I ordered this catch can: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/mor-85473

Ultimately the real fix is keeping oil going out the pcv port. One possible solution might be welding a tube onto the 14mm->-10 fitting on the inside of the VC. In that thread he mentions it at the top. The problem with long left hand sweepers (I think) is that the oil pools on top of the baffle and sloshes right out the pcv port. If you have a tube welded on the fitting, the port is essentially baffled (like an oil pan baffle). I don't know anyone that could weld a small tube on a fitting, but I guess I could just bring it to any machine shop..?

Ultimately I want to still drive my car on the street a few times a week with nice weather (and not have to swap out the seat), and it seems like the PP's are one of the best street/track seats. Another plus with the PP's is they're not flashy with just the Recaro logo. Some other seats have too many logos and in Kevin's case, bling.

We did a roadtrip up to Maine and back in the pole positions, love those seats. I sold mine to Kevin and Oleg, but I guess they probably don't have them anymore.
