maiku is an unknown quantity at this point
I have a brand new greddy catch can 9mm version. I paid $90 +shp for it.
The damn engine bays on the civic are too tight for it. $90 shipped and it's yours.

it's only a tiny bit of red. It can be painted. I can do it.

also this is like the cheapest one other than the home depot one. GL.

your installing this to go between the line on the intake or where the crankcase breather area is? the one on the intake is relatively useless.

The problem with most catch cans out there, including Greddy, is that they're just hollow and essentially don't do the job as well if at all since there's no baffle to capture the oil mist/vapor traveling through the can. I'd trust a baffle to do more catching than merely having the air routed at an angle so the mist/vapor hits the wall of the catch can.

You can pay $90+ on a catch can that doesn't serve a purpose than to look nice under the hood, or you can pay $35 and get a functional DIY can that you can stuff stainless steel coils in as a baffle. I've had mine on for 2-3 weeks now and it's caught a decent amount, and it fits pretty much anywhere in the engine bay cause it's so small. So far I can only say good things about the home depot DIY catch can. Just make sure the bottom valve is sealed with JB weld as it leaks air.
