stockEVO_8....what an engine bay!!! Me likey

 

If you are interested in a catch can, you have the same questions I did, you may want to wait until Saikou finishes the production of his. I have not yet received mine, but as you can see from the site the quality looks good and there are baffles. The price that he quoted me is also very decent. here is his site http://www.saikoumichi.com/

 

I know you can't really see it to well but its the best pic I got. I have a smaller battery and that why it fit there.

mine's mounted very similar.

and not 0 oil, just enough to color the lines, but nothing in the tank to empty, per-say.

 

damn Aspec, holy ARC~!

 

Here's my Helix catch can, mounted to my mini battery with kind of a crappy bracket that I made out of a bunch of random parts from my garage. But hey, it works! lol

Manny, can you make me a custom bracket for my catch can if I give you the specs?

 

I like that Cusco strut bar too! Nice!

 

As long as there is no DEADLINE crazy R&D going on right now

 

I sent you PM about which version you wanna try

 

Bah, I need it by Friday, OR ELSE! J/K! Sure, whenever you get a chance. Can I scan a drawing on paper to send you? I'm a CAD & PS noob.

Here's some pics from my old car w/ a Cusco. I never had enough oil accumulate in it to warrant draining it.

Here are shots of the very first model in progress. All the welding is finished, and the fittings are just installed for photos. You can see that I have decided to go with an industrial sight glass to avoid over filling. It is a little less intrusive and has less parts to break. The drain has a little extension that you can slip a 1/2" id hose over and maybe use a spring clamp to hold it on so you can drain it where you want to.
It is obviously a different shape than what you have seen, but I expect that this will allow a more convenient mounting location. You will understand how it works better by looking at the 3D model that shows the inside details.

Just so you know, this design accomplishes some important things:

1) The incoming oil vapor enters at the end of the tube far away from the exit fitting.
2) The interior is packed with stainless baffle (mesh) material that helps condense the oil vapor and drip to the bottom. The oil vapor does not just go in one fitting and have a clear path to exit the other.
3) It use standard 1/4" NPT fittings so you can use any hose connections you may need.

I am trying to decide on a couple recommended mounting locations so I can include what you need to mount it on an EVO.

As far as cost goes, I need to wait a little before I announce it, but I want to meet or beat the name brand cans, Greddy etc.
So, I really hope to be under the $85.00 mark because that is what many of you have paid, for a can that is missing some of the functional details, and I would like to offer a better product for less.

Here are 2 pics for you:
