I would get one with the twin cans. I have a single can made by RevExtreme and its a POS. I know there used to be a sponsor that sold them but I forgot who. There are also alot of writeups on how they should be plumbed and which ones are the best.

Doing a decent job catching all the **** out of the crankcase. What more does it need to do?

Which one did you buy? I bought one of the NRG cans in chrome. But once i took it apart i noticed there was no internals to catch the mist & the inlet & outlet of the can were side by side. Totally not a good can design compared to the higher end cans.

It is not letting me post links for some reason, but go to (all one word) elite engineering usa dot com.. I know of several people running them on boosted applications, also ordered one for the Vette.
