didn't you have one fabbed up on your green coupe? built into the airbox?
i mean... it was a clean design. but don't knock someone for having the same thing you used to have. </TD></TR></TABLE>
yes i do have one... but i am not all about the super tucked shaved engine bay.. but clean up yes...
what i am trying to say is if someone is going to get down and tuck and shave the whole engine bay.. why have one and why put it on the fire wall??????

Why hide pretty parts that you pay so much money for? A few people asked me why I didnt hide my fuel filter, but why hide a part that has good craftmanship and matches the bay, and was expensive.

Yeah i hear if they are lower than the outlets they can siphon out oil, but not too sure.
Maybe it will just stay on the firewall all nice and fugly

Did you ever run a honda with 15-20 psi of boost? then you will realize why you need one...

I love them, made a HUGE increase in acceleration but I think for a daily driver they might be a little much, especially if you're at freeway speeds. Size 215-45-15 tires, at 70mph I'm a smudge past 5k.

pvc valve is a check valve and under boost it closes, not allowing gases to escape the motor, plus a catch can runs two ports off the block not one, thus blow by can escape.

nope, not for a daily driver.
sorry to ask again, what final drive are you running?

Can someone please tell me the name of the shop down in the LA area or southern cali that has done some nice wire tucks for some peoples cars who have been posted on here, I think they have "speed" in their name, but I don't remember the name of the shop. In anycase name any shops in socal and I ll probably find the shop it is under the names listed.
