BigDog45th · 06-18-2012, 08:01 AM

I installed my Rx catch can this morning and it only took ten minutes! So very easy and I used the short bracket and my engine cover fits back perfectly! Thanks Tracy for a great product and JDM for the fast shipping! Here are a couple of pictures....and excellent paint job too guys...

My mistake! Thanks to JDP Motorsports not JDM for their quick order processing! Great people to work with!!

bluecam805 · 06-18-2012, 12:07 PM

how much did you get it for?

Ivan @ Southwest Speed · 06-18-2012, 12:19 PM

Looks killer man! Thanks for sharing your ease of installation thoughts.

Been getting alot of questions on these and this is nice for those who want to "make sure it fits" and see "what it looks like" before they buy.

Black always looks good in there!

Looks great man.
I'll be getting one of those soon.

Oh, you can go back and edit your OP by clicking the box under it if you wanted. It's a neat feature for those typos lol.

Cost was $139 with free shipping from JDP Motorsports painted in the color of your choice! They are an authorized RX Performance Products dealer.

Rb737 · 06-20-2012, 10:17 AM

Will be getting mine from JDP after reading your feedback, thanks for the pics.

Earnhardtfan77 · 06-21-2012, 01:53 PM

Quick question...if I had to choose between an oil breather cap and a catch can...which would be MORE beneficial in keeping oil out of the intake? I'm leaning toward catch can, but just want to be sure!

In my opinion, you are leaning correctly.

SC2150 · 06-21-2012, 04:10 PM

Can for sure.....Breathner may or may not be needed.

5thGen2LT · 06-21-2012, 04:55 PM

The can deffintly will catch way more oil, the breather is there in place of your oil fill cap so that the oil can get air otherwise you would have a line that would travel from there to your air intake and would circulate through your engine where it shouldn't be going. So if you get a breather you can get like $2.00 plugs at sears and plug the holes where the line was

Is that the Standard bracket or driverS side bracket? Which one is best for the LFX engine?

That is a standard bracket (I don't think RX even sells driver side brackets) and RX and Elite defiantly are the best for all of the Camaro 5 engines (even V8) but I personally like the RX one better and they seem to be more popular on this website!

How did you get the free shipping? When using their web site www.jdpmotorsports.com their web site is hard to navigate but it wouldn't let me get the free shipping. Maybe i did something wrong? or did you have to call them for the free shipping?

I asked the op this already and he told me to get the drivers side bracket. And the option is there on there site

SixGracing · 06-24-2012, 11:34 PM

Love mine! Painted to match as well and I also bought my from JDP. I live in Utah so it's a little more convenient for me. I just stop by and pick it up.

Ok i got it to work and ordered the part. Don't know if it's their web site or it's my computer but it finally worked.

FedEx guy dropped off catch can last night...spent a little QT with my "garage queen" installing it...Thanks to RevXtreme for a great product, JDP Motorsports for quick delivery, and to xfighter1 for great mounting locate - top notch, guys!! I'll try to upload some pics of my LFX innards!

btw...did anyone else struggle a little "sliding" the new hose over the existing plastic one? Instructions say to make sure at least 1" overlaps...I might have gotten 1/2" to 3/4". I was afraid if I pushed any harder, I'd kink the plastic line...

CamaroIOM12 · 06-26-2012, 10:50 AM

I ordered mine right from RX ( painted IOM ) two weeks ago still waiting for it to ship I can't wait to get this on the car. Hopefully soon

5thGen2LT · 06-26-2012, 01:58 PM

Ordered mine from JDP, painted to match (CFM), on 06-18...got it yesterday, 06-25, exactly 1 week later. Not too shabby!

CamaroIOM12 · 06-26-2012, 05:56 PM

I am calling RX tomorrow to find out whats going on

No problem Glad to be able to help!!! And I remember the line being hard to get on but unsure of how much I got mine to slide on. Have had it on for a couple hundred miles and no problems yet!

5thGen2LT · 06-27-2012, 12:06 AM

P.S. - Installed my can at 520miles...so glad I saw the posts about getting one early, while my car is still in infancy!!
