I am going to make one home made. There is a guy down the street from my uncle who works with aluminum.

I saw one from ARC for an EVO, had two lines for hoses and then a third line on the back. Instead of putting a return line, I plan to put a breather filter from K&N or other company on the third line on back (oil stays in the can, fumes go out just like the Golf of my cousin). I probably have to open up the guts of the PCV filter as it normally requrires the vacuum of the engine to open and close.

Of course, I will have to drain this thing out every so often.
