Show me you oil catch can set up

I need to do a catch can set up soon and wanted to see what other people have done.
There are many different kits out there and maybe I will make my own.
I have always like sealed catch can but I see a lot of vented ones, I would like to see who likes what and if anyone has ever switch from vented to sealed or sealed to vented and why.
Also what size lines should be used.

That's what I used to have but got rid of it, was heavy and for like 20k miles caught only like 2 drops of oil.
I know the engine bay is messy, but that's an old pic, looks way better now.

^ That's my 2006 IX-MR. It's an STM catch can. It's been on my car a few years, and works just fine.

Your setup should determine the type of system you need. What are you running?

I'm running the STM sealed catch can setup. It's mounted under the intake. Two lines routed from the valve cover (-10 to the back where the PCV used to be, -6 to the side where the stock line ran from valve cover to intake). Vacuum line routed to the intake manifold (-6, where PCV led to) and return line routed to intake pipe (-10). No pics, but should give you an idea of how it's routed.

Current setup is JB FPBlack and pretty much all bolt-ons available for an Evo. I get quite a bit of fluid in my can.

I am running a built ported head, a htz73 green and pretty much every bolt on. The stm set up you have it the one I wanted to go with. Really wanted to see some pics of how it looks
