i did not even know they made one. link?
you cant buy it like a BT. its built into the SC system and has a hose that runs to the front of the car where a bottle thingy collects the oil and you can dump it

Really? I wasn't aware of a oil separator with a drain that you can empty... I have an "in-line" separator that is really more of a filter/screen, but my kit is an older version. Can you post a pic of this?

I know KB knows what they are doing but it never hurts to think that something else could help. I collect a good amount of oil and have to dump it often, just wondering if having another one somewhere in the loop would help.
The unit's I've seen are for the SC units only. And the way the system plumbs in would not work without a fair amount of changes for a NA car. You could make it work, but IMO, there is no benefit and it sure ain't pretty.

Hey Doc, yours is mounted behind the radiator down low right??. If so, it's still the same gig.

This is true it is not pretty, pretty much looks like a windshield washer reservoir, no shiny cap or container , looks like they spent 5 bucks at the local AZ , but as Bboy states it can hold about 3/8's of a a quart or better

Well, no- I don't think so. I can't see one anywhere, except the in-line filter/screen with a bit of an oversized housing that can collect blow-by, but it doesn't look like it is really designed to be drained (certainly not very easily, anyway). It comes off a hose from the passenger side base of the supercharger manifold... Can somebody post a pic of this "catch can" you are referring to? I put one of these on my GT500, but I think I just have this "screen" for this Chally.
