    Is your ebay can empty or does it have filtration?

    :lol:

    (Catch) can I be both?

    I just bought some stainless steel wool pads and put them in the can. For my car I simply empty it out with my oil changes and rinse off the wool with some simple green as I don't seem to get a lot of blow-by. And I love the way it keeps my intake and IC clean.

    Excellent communication, but 95% of thier cans are made to order and can be customized for you they dont just cookie cutter these things. Thus you need to give them plenty of time for shipment, they estimate two weeks before shipping but my can took 3 weeks they are very busy and get most of thier work by word of mouth, you wont find them advertising a whole lot.

    As long as you have that can routed properly it will function just as well.

    With shipping and a hose kit it cost me $102(very reasonable I think) the dual cans do cost more.

    This can is a great one because they actually put a breather on it allowing you to eliminate the PCV all together making the motor a very very happy motor.
