Just type in Catch can in the search box in the thread, and all pertinent threads will show. This has been asked numerous times. More info in the past threads that's all.

Made your own? Must have one heck of a workshop. Can and bracket look awesome! Love those lines you used as well. I have an RX can on order, ordered like a month ago and just got an email update, delivery is still two weeks away. From everything I've read hear and different tests performed, IMO the RX can seemed to have the Best results. I ordered the dual check valve can.

RX and Elite Engineering are both great catch cans. The biggest differences are the draining methods. The RX has a valve and a hose to drain the can where the Elite can physically unscrews from the top of the can and can be poured out. RX also offers a dual valve catch can for those who spend a lot of time at WOT.

Please feel free to call, PM or email me anytime with questions.

Best regards,

Tyler

RX, Elite, Bobs seem to produce the best actual results from tests I have seen. all catch can's are not equal so don't let anybody tell you they are. Many let vapor/and or oil right on by.

I have RX dual check on my car.

How did you build the can on the inside? Maybe I can come by and look at it?
