yuk! $150+? rediculous.

I wanted something small that I could fit close to the pcv so it doesn't have to work so hard pushing through air. This seemed to be the best option for me and it's not ghaddy (sp?) - I think next time I take it off, I'll remove the bottom portion alltogether and seal it off. too much risk to leave it on. other than that, I'm quite pleased with it so far.

I had one exactly like the blue one in the picture. I got it off ebay for around $20-$30. I never had any issues with it.

swiss, very elegant solution. I like the placement and bracket.

ha ha I just realised my photos show the filter on backwards - I rectified this after the install this morning but before I started the car.

Yah that $10 catch can looks like it could be a great deal. Comes with hardware, some mounting solution and hose. Talk about cheap...

The bottom plastic peice doesn't do a good job of sealing, I've noticed it already has started to leak. I'm going to dissasemble that part and permanently seal it off.

i just got mine 2 days ago... it's a good product considering the price... easy to install just had to get some couplers to fit the larger hose from the VC to the smaller diameter hose on the inlets of the catch can... seems to seal ok and mounting hardware was enough i might change its location when i move my battery to the rear but as for now it seats in an OK position... i belive it's better to get a 10 bucks catch can than spend 30 makin your own and have it leak...
