i had a misimoto one off of american muscle, it looked nice but my pistion ring blow by was so bad it forced oil and sludge threw the can into the intake. so i just went to crank case evac. i don't know why your putting one in but if i could go back i would have went with a air oil seperator, catch can wasn't that great and summits got a ton of air oil seperators if you want to check them out

oh and i dropped my entire a/c and i put the catch can up against the wire wall where that a/c canister is. if not that i was thinking about relocating this little fuse box on the p/s by the intake and putting it there

There's enough line included in the kit to mount it just about wherever you want.

You know you can build a home depot one for $20. Right?

you could build a free one out of any bottle or can and some house hold materials but if you care about how your car looks with the hood up it might be worth the extra couple of bucks

I use the JLT one. Mounted it to the plastic panel at the firewall. I didn't do the home made one because I show my car.
