I did this a while ago with a catch can I had from my GTP. Painted it orange and even put a manual drain at the bottom.

That's a great location for the drain tube. I did the same thing on my Moroso CC. I ran a tube down thru that bracket with the hole in it. Its like it was made for a drain tube.

Yeah, it sure seems like it. I just looked down and was like. Umm that looks perfect. lol
I will definitely report back after about 1000 miles to see what I've collected. With the amount of driving I do that may be Christmas though
What's the idea behind the chore boy filter? My BT didn't come with anything like that.
In the cap of your BT where the two hoses attach there should be a partition with something that looks like a chore boy scrub pad for filtering. If you have an e-bay special you may not have the filter. If you have a BT, its probably there, but you'd have to uninstall it, or use an inspection mirror to see it.What's the idea behind the chore boy filter? My BT didn't come with anything like that.
There is oil/gunk vapor in the air which can be recirculated with the air which passes though unless a filter media, the "chore boy"/steel wool in this case, is used.
Some better catch cans have this media which should help accumulate xtra gunk.
HOWEVER, I'm still not convinced there is a fair comparison going on. I see such disparate amounts of gunk being collected from one member to another and there are SO many variables; stop and go traffic? Short trips? Towing? Atmospheric conditions where we drive? slight engine build differences? These could also explain how some members claim MPG which I will never see in my life; sometimes things are just different.
No matter what, catch-can up!
WHOA!!!! Looks like the price went up since you bought yours! $59.99 now!
How much hose (and what size) did you have to buy???
Oh also can you show a picture of how you attached it to your airbox? Did you just screw it in there and 3m tape the can to the supplied bracket or did you use a custom bracket?
I'm out of town but I will send a pic when I get back to my truck thurs or fri.
The supplied bracket for mine bolted to the catch can. Then I bought some small nuts and bolts and attached it to the air box. No custom bracket needed.
