Hello Guys,

Yes i am designing a catchcan that will be IMO pretty cool! 1L capacity, fully stealth (not visable at all!) CNC billet top and bottom, dual baffled, filtered, and with a drain tap that is reached underneath the car. The only drilling or modifying is to the plastic undertray under the car, but thats only a 15mm ish hole.

I hope to be able to supply all instructions, hoses, taps etc.

I havent worked out a price yet but will be trying to get a prototype version done ASAP.

Pics will follow.

Regards,

Thanks Russell, count me in!
As interesting as the Saikou Michi ones were, yours sound better in almost every way. The drilling of the plastic undertray is fine with me. And being able to get all the houses & instructions etc as well is a bonus.

This is one of the last mods/upgrades I have planned - I'm in no rush but let us know once u have then ready. They sound exactly like what I'm after!

I'm trying to convince Russ to make it 2 seperate cans in one unit.
Dual inlets, outlets and drains.

Yeah I saw that style when I first googled KI Catch Cans. Interesting! I had never seen that sort of design before. I guess whatever fits best, and gives a good amount of capacity. I don't think we'd have as much collected as the OzFoz member, since we don't track our cars. And I'm not running E85 yet either. Considering SM cans (even the large 3" ones) seemed to be about 300mL, talks of 1L cans by KI will be more than enough - even if the 4 port two-in-one can will be less.

Cool, thanks Russ. No rush at all - was curious though. Hope you're better after your surgery. I didn't know BBB hadn't started testing yet.

They look good! :D I got rid of my FB account earlier this year, but maybe I can still view your page. I swear car stuff is the thing I miss most about FB.

Here they are guys! Well 6 at least. Rest are coming soon.

Thanks to Crazy Lukes Speed Shop for the epic welding! Check him out on Facebook!

Now i need some of your help! These first 6 will be sold at a discounted price of $315 including shipping. The reason is I need your help with making some DIY install instructions. You need to supply me some photos of how you installed it and how much hose you needed. Ill give you heaps so you can do it easy.

Plus you will need to grab yourself either a Y piece to connect the drains, or 2 x 10mm drain taps. I cant get them before next weekend. (Cheap from Bunnings or an auto shop)

If you are interested in this, please contact me via PM and i can send you through an Invoice VIA Paypal. Or on my email russell@kapindustries.com.au

I really hope you "can"! :roll:

Russ :D

That is very stealth - love it!! :D

In the 'Installed' picture I was trying really hard to spot it hehe. It wasn't until the 'snorkus removed' picture that I realised where it was 8) .
