Oil/blowby Catch cans.

[lewis15498]

I'm wondering about catch cans as I would like to get one for my supra. Normally I'm against no name ebay products but name brands like a greddy unit is like $100-120 versus like $30-40 ebay noname unit. I cant think of anyway a unit failure could damage my engine so I dont see any risk. Am I overlooking something here? Is there really a difference in this case or would i just be paying for the name? thanks guys.

I prefer large fittings so you don't promote Oil pullover as much
(keeps the air velocity lower in the system)

Neither of those ads say what the internal construction of the cans is so if they're just "cans" I'd go for the larger fittings.

larger fittings...makes sense

thanks ian

Both those cans suck. If you want a good, functional catch can, check this out:

Now that, my friend, is a catch can!

I'm pretty satisfied with my Weapon-R catch can.
Fair price, has 2 layer of baffles, and metal lining around the inner walls.

...But that one from McKinney Raceworks is about as ideal as it gets for a well designed catch can.
