Issue switching catch cans?

Hypothetically if someone wanted to change from one brand of catch can to another, do they all hook up to the same lines? I would assume you would just disconnect the one you have, put the new one in and reinstall the lines that you just had connected. Is this correct?

I was asking because the Mike Norris can is opposite from what you'd think it should be. The lines are the same but the place you put them on the can are reversed.

And that's fine. I'm just making sure I done need to replace any lines that I've already cut when installing my current catch can.

The lines would still go to the same spots, but depending on mounting/bracket location you may need to get longer lines so they can reach to the can.

Okay not to thread jack or anything, but how come you guys are switching? Is it because of all the negative reviews lately involving Rx?
