Looks good. I tried a few different catch cans, and could not get my car to run without throwing a CEL. I did not try the Simota. Hope yours works well.

Yeah, is weird as everything is tight. I don't have a smoke machine to check for leaks, but I still suspect that the pcv nipple being able to slip out of the silicone tube even with the hose clamp tightened is the culprit, yet I now have two clamps on it and a spacer between the tube and clamp.... Maybe a smaller diameter tube is in order....

I'm hoping I found the leak. The breather tube from cc to intake had oil seepage around large nipple on air intake, it was clean yesterday. Where there's fluid there's going to be an air leak....

How is the can constructed? Does it have an inner plastic container or is the the sight window bonded to the aluminum?

Yeah, testing of the unit will come today.... I added PTFE to the three ports... The code hasn't popped yet, but it is showing as pending if I'm reading the code reader correctly.

Alright, I found the leak.... It's coming from the lower shiny end cap where it mates to the main cylinder.... I'll post a pic in a few....
