Default Another IS 250 Oil Catch Can Installed

I actually installed this CC in summer 2013 but here are some pics. I used the same method and location as the other OCC thread but using a different CC. I don't drive my car enough to see anything registered yet but on my other vehicle with the same CC, it's about a 1/4 full within 3000-4000kms or so. This OCC doesn't have any baffles, the byproducts still get deposited in with no problems so I probably wouldn't recommend one of those $150+ OCCs with baffles. I think I paid around $60 for this guy from ebay.

How did you secure the can to the radiator area?

Can you post a closer picture of your custom bracket.

Looks cool. What are the benefits of having this?

Is this the same one?

That looks like the correct one but I've found it for cheaper. Here is a link http://www.ebay.com/itm/Universal-10mm-D1-Turbo-Engine-Oil-Catch-Tank-Can-Reservoir-Performance-Blue-/271108889136?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3f1f595a30&vxp=mtr

What are the benefits of getting one with a breather?
