Default Clear Catch Can or Bulb Seperator

Is there a catch can or bulb separator that is clear so you can see what's be caught and how much. I seen a clear one at a car show but couldn't find who's care it was to ask about it, but it was awesome. Any thoughts?

Are you going to be under the hood watching the bad stuff going into it while you are going down the road. Just kidding man just unscrew the nut at the bottom will tell you how much r how bad your car is doing.

With these cars now if it dont have check valves in it when you go into boost r at WOT. & to let pressure off the crank case it is not working. Even with that some of the bad stuff will get into your intake & down into the heads...

I would think the stuff that would be going into it would really darking the plexglass r what ever it was made of in a small amount of time. That stuff is bad on caking onto anything.. Just something to think about... Robert

You can install a clear glass inline fuel filter inline before a cathcan to see it pretty clearly.
