    Endyn sells it..but expensive as hell. Just get a Morosso one. It's baffled. I used to have one before Hondata. I never had detonated..it may partly because the can catches all the oil. I drain out at least 1/2 a cup every week with normal driving. Then I had the idle problem and ended up pulling the whole thing out. I was lazy to put it back in and ended up selling the can. The detonation problem plagued me afterwards but I was able to tuned it all out with Hondata.

    it's mostly oil and water condensation...Urghh, I said 1/2 a cup!! smile I think the catch can works best if mounted at a well vented place. I put it in the passenger fender well thus get loads of fresh cold air from the outside. Hot oil/water vapor from the engine hits that cold catch can (baffled) and condenses into liquid oil/water and only gases will go into the manifold to be burned. I had another drain hose from the catch can to the front extended out and easy access/drainage.
    Well it worked very well..but like I said, everything was out now...so all the craps get sucked into the manifold and burned (hopefully). Can't be good for the car but what the hell, I'm lazy and I hate my car smile

    Yes, that's the one..just order the Morosso from www.summitracing.com. It's $70 or so can pick up the rest of parts from your local autoparts store for a few bucks...$140 is a rip off.

    Question

    Can you just unplug the pcv hose from the intake and put a filter on it? If not why besides it being illegal?

    If you just stick a K&N filter on your breather, some oil vapor will escape into your engine bay and your engine bay will get dirty faster. Like mine.
