CF Oil Catch Can

Just picked up one of the Prosport CF catch can's, they got em up for 75 right now so it's a pretty awesome deal. Real solid and super badass, I'll have some pics of the install next week. AND it has a side-plexi window for quick checkups.

Holds a lot of oil LOL. If you have an aftermarket intake it will fit easily but stock airbox would be tough to fit it in there.

The MP one is a joke. Look at their other catch can's, they're 100+ for the most part and have nowhere near the refinement of these. That showing teflon tape looks absolutely awesome, and the level checker is ghetto as hell for a 100$ "appearance" item imho. They even said "trying hard to keep it under 100$" in their thread, so that makes me believe it'll be 90+ at the very least. I mean, if you just want function go buy an industrial air line cleaner for 15$ from Princess Auto, filtered w/a quick drain and everything.

the one for the srt 4 is 114 ish shipped. so i HIGHLY HIGHLY doubt that the one for cobalt is gonna be under $100. i already gave up on waiting for modern performance. its been almost 3 weeks. i will go buy some other brand just because modern made me waited for so long and high price. i hate the sight gauge, look so ebay ish. flame suit on now, lol.

It looks great don't get me wrong, but why do companies make them so big? Mine is not even 1/4 that size and it will probably take 100k miles to fill it up.

I wanted to see more info from them before I judged. I think a "screen" on that CF can is a joke. This is something I would be inclined to get:

Well, that's entirely wrong. The cf catch uses a triple layered multi-fine screen to filter the ****, so it's a VERY far cry from a "joke" and is just as effective as what you linked for half the price when it's on sale.
