Best Vented Oil Catch Cans
Looking for a vented oil catch can that is good material, build quality for a lightly modded street driven car.
Any owner recommendations or usage appreciated. Doesn't need to be $300 unit, just a quality part
Thanks

I went the full MM wild kit, connecting to the oil fill via a billet adapter.
I did the 10AN push-lock lines and battery mount. I did the fitting top (instead of vented) and extra few feet of 10AN so as to steer any potential gases (and fluids if it fills up) at the ground.
I ran the end of drain line to a little hole below the pcm so I can easily reach the drain valve.
Emptied it into a used water bottle in the middle of my last event. A little dribble came out.

Why specifically "vented"?
Elite Engineering and Mighty Mouse are quality kits.
It's hard to determine "best" since not all motors are the same, and not all cans are made the same way. There are inherently better/functional designs of the cans themselves that prove to be "better" than others at condensing the most amount of vapors that go through it over a period of time and flow rates. I can make a "catch can" out of an air compressor air/water separator that will condense vapors, but chances are 90% of vapors are just passing through.
General rule, avoid EVERYTING on Ebay/Amazon.

Doesn't appear so. Cheaper going direct and 6614 is not a PN you can search on EE's website.
