Recommendations on Catch Cans

Know there are lots of discussions on catch cans; however, I've done some searches of threads & haven't really found any recommendations on which is best. I'm looking at one from Phastek; has anyone installed this one, if so, would you recommend it? Also looking for thoughts on other brands/models ... thanks

I've got that one as well. Does it's job well, catches a good amount of oil. Usually check it every few thousand miles and it always has a good bit of oil in it. I like it for the price.

I love my Catch Can from Apex. Definitely worth the consideration.

I have the elite engineering and like it. Pretty much anything that a lot of people are using in here are good.

Ive heard the newer rx cans arent very good though.

I purchased from Elite Engineering based on members comments on forum and have not been disappointed with quality or performance

No such thing as best. Nobody knows, could actually be best not to have one at all.

Elite catch cans are the ones we trust the most. They are on 99.9% of all our installs and we haven't any issues with them. They also look pretty sweet!

I have an Elite E2. I checked it after about 200 miles and already had some oil accumulation in there
