Hey guys! The date is drawing closer for me to take delivery of my GT350 and I'm trying to decide which Catch Cans/Oil Separators I should buy. The UPR kit looks very well engineered but I'm still unclear on if the kit comes with install instructions or not and how difficult it is to inspect/drain. The main reason I'm drawn to the Ford Performance kit is that it comes with install instructions and is very straight forward with how you inspect/drain them. Also, I plan to keep the car stock so I do like the fact that FP kit is OEM. All in all, I'm partial to the FP kit, but I don't want to later regret getting the FP kit over the UPR kit. My main question is:

Is the Ford Performance kit inferior to the UPR kit in how well it catches oil?
(keep in mind I don't plan to track the car anytime soon)

Also, where do you guys recommend I purchase the kit that I choose to go with from? I welcome all opinions/suggestions...

If you choose the FP ones, I believe that Autonation Ford White Bear Lake Parts has the best price.

I have the UPR on my '16 GT350. Super easy (less than 20min) to install and looks great. I have less than 600 miles on car so have not hammered on it too hard yet but did check and was a teaspoon of oil in there the other day.

I would also consider the JLT. It takes less than 20 SECONDS to install and traps oil just fine.

I like my UPR. Plus they have great customer service. 4000 miles and about a 1/5 quart of oil caught so far.

Not bad amount of oil, any track time or just street driving?

Not a 350, but a boosted GT. UPR won't it hands down for me. The quality is amazing and installation and draining is super easy. Not the cheapest, but great peace of mind.
