silentdancer is right!

effective? IMO, it is the best cooling plate, if you still remember how it look, you can tell the CF cooling plate can guide the cool air blow direct into my K&N intake! But unfortunately it wasn't compatibe with my new CW-style CF hood, that's why I bought this new ARC Titanium cooling plate instead.

From both pictures seem like there are two ways of connecting the catch can. What's the difference?

Does it really matter how far away the catch can is?

Cusco is wrong. Cusco and Greddy's cans are both built without baffles also reducing the effectiveness.
Move your can to the PCV line and see how much more oil collects.

Slows2k mean the way I install it is wrong, doesn't matter the location of the oil catch can place at

walmart sells an excellent oil catch can for about 2 bucks, it comes in a pint or quart size. Then go to autozone and get hose for another 5 bucks. It works flawlessly and costs next to nothing. Granted this is an S2000 not my eagle talon, so I will probably be picking up brand name catch tank lol
