Default Oil Catch Cans

If anyone wants a cheap oil catch can, there are some on Ebay. I don't know if they are very good, but here is the link. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/OIL-RESERVO...sspagenameZWDVW

Anyone know anything about these catch cans or this company?

You guys cant be serious. That wont do help your engine in any way. You need to get one with some sort of a filter on the inside. PM Projekt, he will explain it to you.

Instead of a PM just have him explain it here for all of us to read.

I don't understand why you would need a filter if its only being used inline to catch oil... what does a $150 cusco can do differently?

Those units are trash. I actually bought one to place a filter inside it so it will filter better.

Basically you need a filter to catch the vapors and turn them into droplets. If they remain vapors they will go in through the hose and go back into the engine and basically do absolutely nothing.
