Any "Catch Can" Recommendations?

Hey Guys,
Forgive me if this has been answered in a previous thread, but can any one recommend a good quality catch can? Would the install compromise the factory warranty? I've been doing my homework to see how they work and why it seems to be a good upgrade to prolong engine life, it's just there's so many to choose from! Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Get the one that won't cause a drop in oil pressure, blow your engine and void your warranty. Those are my favorites.

You just had to open up that can of worms, didn't you. Mine is Apex...extremely well made, but with the troubles they've been having, I'm not really sure who else sells them. I'm sure you can still find them somewhere.

Troubles? I too have an Apex CC and have had no troubles.

Bunch of them out there. Elite seems to be the most popular on this site. Started to order one myself. But, I like to buy locally when I can to help out my area. So I got this one from the most reputable place around here..........All aluminum and well built.

Mighty Mouse was the "opinionated" choice of many in the engine section. Apex are crap sold mine and went to Mighty Mouse.

Since you have port injection, you don't really need a catch can. However, if you just got to have one, I'd recommend getting an Elite.
