Catch Can Locations

I have been getting a lot of blow by into my intake pipe. The OEM intake pipe was coated on the inside with oil. When installing my LICP I found blow by in the licp and the intercooler.

I plan on upgrading the FMIC soon and want to protect all the parts from this blow by business. I want to get a oil catch can, but am unsure where to mount it. My mods are in my signature, with injen uicp/intake and factory battery, but space seems tight to install one.

I do not really want the weapon r that mounts on the strut bar. What other options can you suggest for my situation?
Where do you mount yours? Photos would be great.

Thanks in advance for all your input!

Plenty of room under the BCS. Mounted my DC3 Dual CC there with no problem. Unfortunately I have no pics readily available, but do a search and some will be found rather easily.

I liked the DC3 design, but could only find it mounted on the firewall next to the steering column.

I'll look into under the BCS. What do others have to say?
