I was glad to get you all set and love the install pictures. Check it at 750 and 1500 miles to see how much oil your car uses and you be able to set a good schedule for checking it and emptying it.Ok I said I would put some pictures up and maybe even help clear up anyone doing the filter upgrade lol. Poor Joe went round and round with me on this. Then realised what he was saying after 20 times hahahaha.so this is the can installed and how you do the filter upgrade ROFL.
You have to move the wire harness a bit to tuck it inbetween it. It's a bit rough still as it seems it's not as easy to do with the 17 as it shows in the picture. That was actually one of my biggest problems when installing these. The harness definitely do not want to move at all. I wonder if the harness is a bit different on the 17s.Ok gotcha...I still maintain that the length of the tank, at least in my 17, smashes against two wire harnesses below. What you don't see in the pic of the tank is it felt like it was not sitting flush with the mounting arm. I will have to throw some washers on it (I have to now since one of the washers fell into the abyss when I was taking it out...hope it falls out sometime). Honestly with the size of that thing, does it really need to be checked every 1000 miles?!
I'll wait for the new breather you'll get to me before I put it in again since I think it would be a real biatch to change that breather with the tank mounted in the car. Anyways, I don't have much doubts that it will perform great.
Thanks Joe.
The harness is the same on the 17 and it can be unclipped and moved over with a bit of finger muscle. I install them on a regular basis and I am so used to the steps I will need to update the install for both with a few pictures.You have to move the wire harness a bit to tuck it inbetween it.

Completely agree...the best part about it is that it is so big I'm not sure I will ever need to check it...and I am concerned about the valve covers as well since I will eventually paint mine...time will tell...I couldn't even sell mine now since its scratched up now...but installed you can't see the scratches.i sold mine. at least the catchcan. the remote mount location isn't feasible on a 16 GT PP. sure you can jam the can in there but they what? the only way to check it is to completely undo the can from the mount. if you have painted coil covers you will scratch the heck out of those doing this. disappointed, but oh well. thanks for the help all.
