Catch Can Pics.
 

anyone have some pics they dont mind posting of their catch can set ups? just looking for some ideas on how to do mine. thanks.

Yea, this is something that would be helpful... I'm surprised there isn't more information on these in the forums.
Brands, price, capacities, breathers, etc....

thread moved to aftermarket performance section.

I did the Home Depot Special - and mouted it on the air pump bracket - I have pics around here somewhere.

i made one out of a piece of 3" PVC pipe and a couple end caps and some fittings.... also mounted it to theair pump pump bracket

I found all the fancy catch cans to be too big to mount anywhere in a stock engine compartment without a large amount of work

+1, works well - sorry no pics - mounted on firewall near break master cyl.

i always wanted to do this

That's the CF can that Fluid Motorsports is selling. Pretty much that location and over by the washer fluid are the only two places you can use.

Yeah, when your catch can is a spare oil drum. . . I bet some have found some interesting mounting locations.

Looks good RK. :)

Oh man that bud light bottle is perfect talk about custom engine bay!

Thanks RK! thats exactly what im going to do. i bought the same kit also, so it will work out perfectly. :)

here is mine mounted to the air pump...

;)

yeah but i constantly clean them when im on the road and I get a bug on or something

I do love the battery relocate though. I want so much to get the battery out of my hood compartment, it is just huge under there. The damn thing looks almost as big as the engine when you pop the hood.

these pics give good ideas on where to mount the catch cans

Damn roadkill is that the Fluidmotorsports can??? Looks great...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAA that was hilarious!! :)

These all just for appearance or is there any functional value to them in a daily driver?

Okay....here's mine.
Fluid Motorsports.

Excellent cheap mod(realitively speacking) for FI people,,, helps with keeping small levels of oil blowing through the intake vac line

very nice Mazurfer!!! I think I'll order mine today...

FI or NA - it is a good mod as your oil vapors from the motor have to go somewhere... they can go to a can; or into your intake.... you pick.

For FI - it is more of an issue as the oil vent nipple see's positive pressure relative to the negative pressure of the intake manifold.

Mine's not Carbon Fiber like the others, mine's just blue...........as I have this blue thing going on with my car. :uhh:
I could only come up with three places to mount it. Where I did, where TGLRK(TheGreatLouisianaRoadKill) and RK did, or maybe in front of the alternator and attach to the back of the intake box.
I choose not to mount it where they did as I thought it might make it even harder to get to the damn dipstick! :banghead:

yep sure is :D its a really nice can. i like it since its smaller than a lot of the other cans out there, so it made finding a sport, sorta, easy lol. instaling it is a breez. the hardest part was finding a spot. thanks to RK for the pics.

Mazsports???
Thats such a nice setup...
Some other vendor needs to make that combo or one simular...

Very nice guys!

That's a DIY "mazsport" cans. Bought the cans for $60 each, i'm working on the windshield washer one on the left. The center one is for 2-stroke oil. The car is 1/2 apart, I was installing a new turbo kit, will take new pics when done.

^^^where did you get the cans at that cheap?

Murray's Speed & Custom Shop.

These are chrome, and lucky me they came with burgundy caps. :)

^oh they sell that 3 canister at murray's? Ill have to stop in there tomorrow after school! do they have any other color caps? or just burgandy?

That reminds me.. it's time to bolt mine on!!!

Does anyone have pics of the Weapon R catch can installed. They have one for the RX-8 but can not figure out where it is mounted

I believe the Weapon R goes where Mazurfer has it and I've highlighted where I think the second flange goes

I have no clue if it has different caps. I needed burgundy so I got 3 of them, they could be easily painted though...
They sell the canisters individually. I bought 3 of them. $180 + tax.

who has a good Catch Can DIY

^just look at the pics, it's simple.

Rotr8, thanks for the response. I like that location as it still allows the battery to be relocated to the windsheid washer tank. looks like you have moddied your 8 nicely. There seems to be alot of rx-8s in the Baltimore, I am in No Va. How about Columbia for central location for a meet?

There is a Columbia meet already established, long time ago by the 7s and now us 8s go too. Its at the Columia FuddRuckers... Its a monthly meet and Ive been twice now... Search in the recent MD people or Ty his screenname is 8newbieTy I think....

That 3 cans setup look so cool!

is it not mounted on anything? It looks like it's kind of just sitting there...

Oh....you really don't know me very well. :lol2:

Anyway, see the bracket circled in green. The Fluid Motorsports comes with that bracket that has a twist in it for mounting, and in this picture you can see it's mounted to the bolt on the airpump. The twist is right underneath where the wire bundle crosses it as well as where the large blue grounding wire runs. I slipped the bracket underneath the wires for a cleaner look.
