I'm looking to treat myself and my S1 to a catch can. I've searched the threads and haven't really come up with too much.

Here's what I'm looking for...

--Anodized fittings (where do I get these?).
--Braided stainless hose.
--Polished catch can (maybe a catch can crafted from a high-polished nitrous/NOS 10 oz. bottle?). I'd like the catch can to be of the highest quality possible--any thoughts on the one Al has listed?
--One or two filters?
--Best place to attach it?

Any thoughts, and lots of pics, would be most appreciated!

Thanks, that's some good info. (especially the fittings); however, I'm looking for the ultimate catch can. Some photos would be great if anyone has, or has seen anything, above and beyond what a normal person would invest in a catch can... After the Penske Shock everything seems cheap!

Good call, I totally forgot about that.

I've seen that--thanks though. Not sure I want to see the "splooge" and I wonder if the acrylic/plexi would scratch over time. Plus, I'd like one with one or two of the mini K&N filter attached. Any close up photos of the one Al has for sale?

IMHO the one one posted above is cooler than any other "expensive mad scientist" catchcan. Nothing screams "expensive mad scientist solution" like a beaker with billet end caps and black tubing.

It does look nice but I'm still unclear as to how the acrylic would fare over time. Still looking for pics of catch can "action shots".

Acrylic could be wet sanded and polished to restore the luster, like car headlamps.

I have the Pegasus can with braided lines and anodized clamp covers. Looks trick IMO.
