Is there an easy way to add a drain hose to the revxtreme can? I like it, but it's a pain in the rear to cram a rag under it when you want to drain it out, otherwise it will leak all over everything. BTW, mine had a LOT of oil/gas in it when I drained it out since installing it.

OK Guys this is how I have my current catch can run. I installed it how TLewis told me too when I called him when I was confused. At least I think I installed it right.

Now my question is why in the diagram in post 70 is the rear passenger side port blocked off?
If it's not blocked off, does that make the hose from the front passenger port to the intake manifold dirty?
If I do block off the rear passenger port, do I also need to block that hose I disconnected from it? I assume I would because then the system would be open.

I just came across an interesting read that I thought would be a good addition to this thread.

+1 for the Saikou Michi. Great product with great customer service. LS1 style dual catch tanks mount to the front of your passenger side head right next to the A/C filter. Or, you can get them to do a custom bracket for you, like I had to get since my alternator was already in that spot. They made the bracket and powder-coated it red all for no additional charge ($135).

Since i got so much info from this thread ill contribute where i can.
I went with the saikou michi dual, had him put -an fittings on, and it was like 15$ more i think. Went with the normal mounting bracket, and had him PC them black. As you can see, theres no emblem (like on the site), There was a vinyl stick on emblem originally (in white) but it was already coming off. I prefer it this way so i dont see it as a 'con' (or think any less of the quality)
