Default Elite Engineering Catch can?

I want to order one but I have one problem! I have a Pro Charger and that mounts were the Catch can would. Is there another location or a differnt bracket that would allow me to mount one?

You can mount them anywhere. Many of our customers mount them up front on the radiator shroud, Some will say that the cooling aids in the vapors being released into the can.

It is a closed loop, so you can just extend the lines to fit your mounting location

Hmm. Do you have any pics of them mounted up front?

I used to run a GReddy catch can in the front next to my Blackwing intake until I swapped in a GCP/Norris can recently which mounts to the passenger head.

Here's the GReddy.

Mine is mounted in the battery compartment, losing the bling factor

I think this is my only way of mounting one. I have Andy's Pro Charger kit with the front mount intercooler, that takes up all the space up front.

Thanks for the pics guys.
