It doesn't even matter where you put it. What matters is do you know how to hook it up right and did you put any baffle on the inside.

If your next question is "what's a baffle?", then you don't need an oil catch can.

OK, cool, but you need to force the air to flow through the steel wool to filter it. Try running a hose down to the bottom of the tank from the inlet and then fill it up with as much wool as you can.

If you want an honest opinion, it doesn't look good. You should mount the tank vertically, not almost horizontally. If you leave it like that, I suggest that you drain it regularly, so that the oil doesn't end up in your intake during a launch...

It's supposed to work in vacuum only. On boost you still have the breather to relieve crankcase pressure

i think its more important during boost than vacuum, the oil vapor causes detonation while in boost, thats why u should bypass the pvc system, and the breather doenst do much in venting gas
