Man you guys did a great job on this. Thanks for the pics! Yeah, it looks like a little more clearance might be more aesthetically pleasing and practical for poeple with fat hands like me! This is going to be a nice addition to my engine bay. Nice write up.

Great thread and install pics, well done.

I have a elite on a lfx and had to mount it with a different bolt on radiator bolt. Where is and when can I get the proper mount because where it is now can get the bottom unscrewed. Please help thanks

Contact Steve at Elite Engineering. He can hook you up with the new bracket.

What a great great company. Already spoke to them and new bracket is in the mail. That's how it should be. Thank you Elite. Great can and great customer service. I recommend there can to Any and everyone. Is not hallow like so so so many others. I've cut one open to see. It was empty. Meaning just a can lol. Be careful! Things aren't always as they seem

This is the one mod I need to do. Cost?

How often do you have to empty the can?

Most people I know with cc's change every oil change or so, but I change my can and my dads because I know when they need to be drained based on the miles and driving

So went to switch brackets. Only had two months. Yuck wow full of shit

I installed my catch can today. This is my first mod. Thanks for the pictures, they really helped. My car is absolutely stock so it is really tight. I guess I will have to look into a new intake tube to perhaps open things up a little.

Any reputable brand-name cold air intake will do. You could go with the SLP intake elbow & filter if you want to keep the OEM look.

Thanks for the recommendation. I will look into it.

I am still stock on my Camaro, what is the best catch can to install? Or at least from your experience what do you recommend?
