http://community.webshots.com/user/loofeeturbo2I've done the same for my FC TII, and it works. so I've done this with a lil touch . As u can see that all this was purchase @ Lowe's for less than $30.the size of the hose was 5/8" heater hose. 3" caps and pipe. Vac nipplesthe same size as the hose. 2 different sizes nipples, 2 for the line to the engines-intake, and 2 smaller ones for the level. Just FYI let me know what u guys think. C

nice man! i like it alot. I think i might go with something like this... my engine bay is pretty anti-bling and a big shiny catch can would look odd.

I spent about 30 minutes in Lowes one day getting all the same stuff together to make a catch can eeriely identical to that one.

Then I remembered the group buy on Zilvia for Cusco ones, and I went home an bought one;)

thanks guys, it's not the best looking in the world , but the main thing is, " It will do its job," and cost less than those nice shiny pretty ones. that do the same thing. C
