Default Looking for a blow by oil catch can kit

Hey guys,
I have an 05 A4 1.8, I'm looking for a blow by oil catch can kit.
I can only seem to find ones that fit the B7. Anyone know where
I can find some for my car or if the ones for the b7 will fit?

Thanks for your help

I've heard some really bad things about tuning an audi without a catch can.
I haven't heard anything about it freezing, what would freeze on it? And is there a way to prevent it from freezing?

I also find quite a bit of oil in the pipe right below the inner cooler every few months or so. Not sure what its caused by, just heard most people tuning audi's install oil catches.

do you know what the products of combustion are? mostly water.

Im trying to make an educated decision on what to do.
I came here to see if anyone had answers. I appreciate your opinion but the fact that your not answering my questions and only being insulting leads me to assume you don't know how the catch can works.
I would still like to know what could freeze, is there a way to stop it from freezing or it there's a way to stop the blow by?
If you can he mature about your answers, please let me know. Im very currios is to what my options are.
Thank you.

You can just install a inline catch can on your already stock crank breather line.

I am guessing the person is suggesting that the fluid in the catch can might freeze up since there will be some moisture in the can with the oil since what the can is catching is the oil vapor.
