Default Oil catch can mounting location pic thread

Well I got a new oil catch can and decided to mount it up so I opened the hood and holy shiz there is no room. Looked around and only found this spot!

Post pics of where you mounted it and if you rem having to remove anything to do it. Heres where I put it and used all the tubing provided.

Mods pls move if in wrong section.

Damn, was wondering if having to much hose mattered but I guess not if you can hide it there.

Exclamation ECU

If you ever added a catch can, you ought to retrain the ECU for idle air volume... it made a big difference for me...

(I used 2 of those air filters in series)
