Another catch can thread
None of the others seemed to have gone anywhere (years old, not much info etc.).
So, I know some of you are running some catch cans. I've been thinking of this for awhile, as my car just passed 52k miles. Looks like I'll be holding onto it for awhile, and every little bit will help.
So, what have those with catch cans gone with? Assuming 2 are needed, unless there's a single one with all the fittings? Limited in knowledge about this, so go easy on me.

Another catch can thread
Arc catch can/coolant reservoir. Best one out. There's a chart out somewhere on here as to which hoses to tap into with the stock intake manifold. It's different if you have the m370 uim.

ok found this in another thread..
so how to prevent oil getting into the throttle bodies?
I still haven't connected the hoses actually. I ordered 3/8" hoses from Summit but they got lost in the mail so I'm working on that right now.
However, the installation is actually different on my car. On my G35 HR, there is a vacuum port (for PCV) that goes from the passenger side valve cover and connects to another port in the back of the plastic plenum.
For the VHR, you actually have two PCV vacuum ports, one on each valve cover, and each port is connected to another port at the front of the plastic plenum.
HR
VHR
For the VHR, you'll need to modify your catch can so that it has two ports for each, or you can get an ARC oil catch can/coolant reservoir combo tank that already has dual ports for the VHR.

also will most likely be using a compress air filter/separator instead of a Catch Can around the same cost if not way less and way more effective.
for e.g
