SRR makes one. They're pretty nice looking and it's convient how you can easily remove it from the car and dump the crap out of it because of the brackets and mounting system. The mounting reminds me of how your typical capacitor is hooked up for a car stereo. I saw and cuddled with a bunch of them today at the place in my sig below....

The Cusco is designed to be on RHD cars. The SRR includes a mounting bracket and nothing else unfortunately. BUT it is on special right now from IPS.

Neither the cusco nor the SSR catch can's filter out the oil vapor. The only one I've seen that does filter the oil vapors is the moroso.

Not totally, check this out they use steel wool to filter the oil vapor. http://www.c-speedracing.com/howto/c.../catchcan.html

I like this one by RRE
http://www.roadraceengineering.com/i...structions.htm

It's small and has a drain spigot like the Moroso. Might be the same size as the Moroso, but at least it looks better...if you care about that kinda thing.

Greddy, CUSCO, and SRR All do the Job, I have all 3 in stock. My favorite is the SRR. https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=158200

A catch can is an extremely detremential item to engine durability and perfromance. While yes oil vapors dont enter the intake tract (which is where you get the extra hp from) but the vaccum in the head provided by this is lost. The effects and remedy for this are availiable at the archives of http://www.theoldone.com</a> and <A HREF="http://www.overboost.com" TARGET="_blank">http://www.overboost.com Currently we use a simple K&N fuel filter inline to the intake and we clean it every oil change. You can tell by the difference in the two sides of clear vinly tubing we use that its doing a very good job.
If a catch can is so bad according to theoldone, why is he selling a modified moroso one on his site??
