I'll snap a pic of mine today and post it in this thread. I don't have all my hoses hooked up. I have 2 ports on each side with no breather on top.
I plan on re-circ it when i get a chance. I never had a problem before but now that i'm on e85 the cabin smell is getting bad with open breather when cruising.

i love mine and just got the check valves to make it draw vac on cruise and in boost it is fully vented.
best of both worlds. No stinky cabin and it vents through a breather when in boost.

Vibrant performance also makes a great litle gadget that would work great with the catch cans:

It is a venturi system, and instead of draining the contents from the catch can, it all gets sucked in to the exhaust sytem and gets burnt up by the hot exhaust.

Working on your catch can and PS can right now.. I am sure you will like the kit.
I am also working on some semi-solid engine mounts. Essentially a solid mount, shortened by ½” with a twist. Hope to get this tested as soon as spring hits.

Rough prototype:
The top plaste is 1.5" x 1.5", and the lower plate is 2" x 2". On the bottom side, there is a nylock nut welded on the inside of the plate, so the lower bolt would never come out. Hard to weld, as it has to be done in stages, but I got it down to an art now.

The OEM engine mounts are 4". I will offer full solid mounts for those who wish to purchase them.
The othe mounts (with a twist) will be 3.675" long, and will have a hard rubber compound on the bottom. This will make the mount "solid" but still have some anti virbation material making it good for DD. This is why I am using a square bottom (and top) for these mounts. There will be 4 squar inches of this rubber compound on the bottom to reduce the noise/vibration.
I will post pictures when I have a set done and installed. Should really stiffen things up.
I will make a few sets and send them out to those that want to try them out, and provide feedback. FI will be a requirement for those that get sent out. Not sure what you have on the car now, but I could throw a set in with your catch can/PS reservoir.
