Yeah, but the included "Oil Catch Tank" might be useful;

Not $1,199.99 useful;

Maybe $49.95 useful.

LOL.

More like $10 useful, all oil catch cans work the same despite the price difference.

Keep in mind, ExoticSpeed parts are not cheap.. Maybe for me, since I live in the same city as them, though
