Default AMW Oil Catch Can

Does anyone have a picture of the AMW oil catch can in the brushed

aluminum finish as sold by MTI? ( Motorsport Technologies Inc.)

Does it operate on the same principals as their new anodized cans?

Any information would be appreciated.

Have a great day!

No pics, but I would assume it works just like my annodized(sp?) can.

GREAT craftmanship and very functional underhood bling.

I too am interested in this can. Also prefer the brushed aluminum finish. What, if anything, does annondizing (sp) add to the finish? Is the difference only the color?

Here's a couple of pics of mine. It was installed by ECS as well. They did an awesome job. The catch can itself is very well put together and looks as if its a stock part.

all the same, colors dont make em work differently


if ya want a cool install, get in touch with DTE ,,,they may have a new bracket out for them.

I have one on my car and it clears the larger (maggie) tensioners.

easy to install and works great. Not sure if they are marketing it yet...

I think ECS also has a bracket.

Why not go to Home Depot and get this one....Air Compressor Filter and just get a few barb connectors, a couple of feet of hose and do it yourself. Would be about $15 in parts and 1/2 hour of time....seems like a no brainer.
