You don't need it though.

David Key did some photos of the new engine bay from his truck, I can see several differences there. Some on the turbo tubing and what looks like the air intakes. They could have made some improvements to some of the inter-cooler issues.

Would you mind posting some pics of the differences.

Has anyone purchased & installed a cheaper catch can setup on their 2015? I might be wrong, but $400 for some hoses and a canister seems a little steep.

spend the money on the can- they are not created equal. Its whats inside the can that makes the difference. UPR and RX are miles ahead of any other system available.

I use these guys on my sports car. You could put 2 of these on for about 1/2 the price and their design is tops.

Its not about just putting a catch can in the middle of the lines. Its about correcting the inadequate pcv system. U need to add vacuum to correctly evacuate. That's why there is more hoses and t taps and all that. Its beefing up the way the system actually works

Because its not new. Very little has changed since the previous years as far as the pcv. I believe they added a valve but still did not address the previous years evacuation "issues"
