Default Nasty Performance vent fix? Maybe.

Ok so Ive seen the problems with the setup. Ive seen the persons on here really frustrated with not being able to fill up too. But Mine works great. But my friend KP pointed something out that I never noticed. My car was in the garage for about 1 week and I hadnt checked on it in a while. Well as soon as I walked in what do I smell? Gas The fumes are too much for me. I didnt notice it before because my car is usually stored @ the shop. My fix for this so far is a charcoal canister. Once I install it and test it out Ill let everyone know. But if anyone else has any ideas let me know. I allready have a rollover valve and vent installed now and Im about to put the canister I got in. So it will go like this. One hose from the Nasty Performance vent hole on the tank,to the Jaz overflow can,to the Canister then to rollover valve vent. Of course the Canister will be above the Jaz can so Liquid can stay away from it. I could change this up when I have a couple of parts I need to get. But this should give persons a overview of what I am trying to accomplish. Hopefully it will get rid of this problem. Any feedback would be great.

I have to plum the canister to a vac source. So I will have a answer here within two weeks. My car is stripped bare right now due to the cage install.
