Edit: bought fathouse fab can



I know there's probably 10,000 threads on this... but whos's catch can do you use? how big is it? where does it go in the bay? I have a FF kit (or putting one on at least) Venting rear VC with stm rear fitting, front vc with stm fitting, vented dipstick, vented balance shaft hole (-10 , -6, -6, -6 ) i like the STM BFC but the build time is too long. i need this by the end of the month at the very latest (going to call them tomorrow anyway)if all else fails i guess i'll just dump to the ground until it shows up the only similar ones that show up on a google search is the fathouse fab one which also looks nice. does anyone else have any recommendations?

Check out the AGP catch can. It's a great piece for 140 bucks. It mount on the left side of the engine near the cam cover.

Thank you. Just checked it out. It doesn't seem to be large enough for what I need and would also have to be modified for my uses.
It does look nice and for a reasonable price

I have a vms catch can and placed next to the abs pump under the strut bar. I made a bracket to hold it in place using one of the existing bolts for the pump. Looks good

Ended up ordering the fathouse fab one. Ben said it should be done this weekend or by next. But either is fine with me and it's a nice can !


I was waiting for sheepey to email be back but hasn't done so in a few days (which is weird because usually it's within 20minutes) but I wanted to get the order processed before the weekend.

Having deadlines sucks

Nevermind I looked it up online and saw it only works with the VIII. My acd pump would be right in the way. Sucks too because I really like that one a lot.

I've been texting alex but I think my email must have got lost. I would have liked to of had all sheepey stuff but this can is nice. Sheepey is coming out with an evo catch can that will be like their honda one I believe.

This one goes behind drivers headlight so it's for FF only or a short intake pipe for stock location turbo. I just emailed Ben from fathouse and described what I wanted for fittings and location and he made it happen.

Received it yesterday. It's pretty big !
It's also beautifully made
It has 2 huge k&n filters on the top as you can see and is baffled as well. Couldn't ask for anything better especially for only $330
Should be installing it sometime soon
