Chris Holmes from HPX motorsports came by our shop yesterday afternoon and we fit a Bob's catch can onto his 2012 GT. Really nice guy, located in Sarasota. Thought I would share the pics. :beer:

looks like a nice piece

Thanks. They are also sold as a bare bones kit, so you can do your own custom fittings and hoses. They have been made for the gt500 market for a while now, but the GT crowd can use these styles ideas too! Starting at $99 shipped Brushed Bare Bones Oil Separator

From svtp thread : http://www.svtperformance.com/forum...o-sports-new-oil-air-separator-catch-can.html

Project complete. Nice piece. The Fragola 90* adapter anodizing is off so may exchange that piece. Tried to keep it compact. Put the ground wires on the underneath side. Cut the bolt short so it was flush as it threaded from underneath for the front ground wire. The rear wire is underneath with a nut on the longer provided bolt. Tabs did not have to get straightened since they reside in the same holes just reversed from the underside if that makes sense.

Here's the final install with the battery installed and everything cleaned up.

Not sure I'll do a can on the drivers side, but will order fittings and shrink clamps to make a matching hose.
