I have one on my M54 and I collect a bit of sludge/moisture.
Mainly I like the vacuum created with a closed loop system.

Thank you, sir. Any recommended brands? Looks like Beedub’s “42” is no longer available.

Steeler · 05-07-2020, 04:26 PM

I have the same.
Don’t need anything special as long as there is a decent filter media.

what a shame that was a great catch can.... but im guessing the price made people not bother.... completely over engineered but a thing of beauty!

Bit of bling for sure Byron

Thank you, gentlemen!!

I have a really nice one, though not installed yet.

wyshyvanuk · 05-10-2020, 09:17 AM

Well, Vanne, you big tease, who's the manufacturer?

Vanne · 05-11-2020, 08:07 AM

lemme dig it up...

wyshyvanuk · 05-11-2020, 08:52 AM

Hi, Vanne. If the info is seriously difficult to uncover, I'll just go shopping. Thanks, again!!!

Vanne · 05-12-2020, 08:51 AM

Nah it's not difficult, but I just had a look at it, it's super nice built, but there is no factory name or anything. The box is just brown carton ,so that's no help. I'll provide a few pics.. problem is I can't for the life of me remember where I got it in Oz. It was a while back...

Thank you, sir!!

Here are a few pics.. it feels like a mag light, same construction.

There you go.. it unscrews from the top, which will be bolted to the firewall.

Will only be hooked up during non track events. On track days, I remove the return line from the airbox.

wyshyvanuk · 05-13-2020, 08:05 AM

Perfect, Vanne. Thank you VERY much!!

Looks suspiciously like a Mishimoto model. Nice unit. Thanks!!
