Elite vs rx catch can
After reading supposedly the rx catches more oil than the elite, what do you guys use? The elite looks about 5 times the quality and the mounting hardware location is better I think. Do you just mount the can and pull of the house from the intake to the engine and run new tubing to the corresponding locations on the can? Or are some cans different?

I carefully reviewed both & chose the Elite Catch Can - installed it last weekend & took about 1-hour, very simple to install w/excellent installation information.

I bought the Elite and then came across the RX can and was dissapionted that I did'nt see it first. Once I got the Elite can I was happy with it. I think I would rather have an anodized can than a painted one for the long term. I think both cans are good quality products. I didnt realize till I received the package and looked at the address that Elite is only about 20 minutes from my house.

I love my RX can but I can't offer a comparison...I heard it was the most trusted name on C5 so that's what I went with.

OFF THE CHAIN
|
I know Tracy runs a fantastic company with the RX Can, i own the Elite Engineering can but if i knew about the RX i would have went with that just because Tracy makes his in the United States! I have no clue if Elite is made in the good ol USA?
But i will die supporting our home made products!

Why doesn't the car come with a catch can? Or does it?
