Looks like ebay crap...you can't even access the inside to put in a baffle or a hose.

just because it says greddy doesnt mean it is good or will work. if it is it is a quality product, but there are better ones that will work on a honda application.

some of us fill out catch cans up in a pass or 2. the endyn kit works well, the endyn kit with a supplimental kit works even better.

the problem with the greddy kit is that there is no vent, no drain, only works off of the one port off of the valve cover.

try this:

i would never pay 100 bux for a catch can. i bought an ebay one with a removable lid. i packed it with stell wool, and attached a tube from the inlets to run to the bottom then tapped a hole on top for a nipple fitting and clamped a filter on it. tadah. fancy catch can with the same **** as the others for less then 40 bux, and its polished bishes

It's a baffle to catch the oil vapors. All these tards buy an empty catch can and just hook the hoses up and think it's cool. That doesn't do anything...the vapors and pressure just go through the can to your IM just like stock.

Also, steel wool is not the best choice because it can rust and the little metal pieces can break off. Best thing to use is a bunch of plastic kitchen scrub pads....just like steel wool except plastic. Mine have been doing a great job for 3+ years.
