where to put a greedy catch can?
mines not a greddy, but here is a pic of where i put mine, kinda hard to see, its right behind the resevoir bottle.

make sure where you put it, it is lower than the pcv valve so you dont get any blockage in the lines goin to the catch can.

I was thinking about putting mine where the windshield wiper bottle is located on the front right. I am going to remove the windshield wiper bottle...

i don't know about all motor setups, but for f/i setups, it needs to be high. if you want to read a really good thread about this. search for threads by "dasher" and it'll find all the info about this.
i know it's hard to find a good place in integras to place a catch can. it seems it is easiest if you do a wire tuck or something so that all the wires are gone and then it looks like you have more room. at least around the shock tower so you can place it there. if not, you can either relocate the battery or make some room against the firewall. i haven't really decided where to put mine, but i'm leaning towards the firewall if i can move things around. if you just need to vent a little pressure, just put it in a low location. fashion > function right?

a catch can is made to work like the pcv system on our honda cars. here's are threads by dasher
who explains how our stock pcv system works. they're the same.

I think it's for releasing pressure (crankcase ventilation) from your engine by taking oil to keep the oil level at a good level. It's kind of just like the name, "catch can"; it's a can that catches some oil to keep the PCV down so seals and gaskets don't eventually wear out or break.
