interesting stuff on ebay
first of all, i found this catch can that fits the C63
--> http://www.ebay.com/itm/ADD-CARBON-F...#ht_3356wt_907
is a catch can really helpful for the longevity of the engine ? and could this work ?
was considering the weistec one which is 500$, this one is 60$. i don't know much about the topic, is it an easy task to do, or is there some engineering involved in it?
also, this intake looks outstanding but for $3,600
wtf ... havn't heard of it either
--> http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nemesis-Merc...r#ht_500wt_967
THOUGHTS ???

They claim the catch can increases hp! 
The intake does look great but not willing to spend $3,600 for it.
JL motoring sells the exact same thing (minus the CF airbox) for 1k.

$500 for a catch can? I've made one from an aquafina bottle on my race car and it worked..
If you have a functioning pcv system it is not really necessary.

at first , that Nemesis kit was $4200 . i called Driiv and actually talked them down to $3500 . then i found out that AZN had the same kit for a promotional price of $2300 so i bought it and i am waiting for it now . should look pretty good sitting next to the blower and it should help a bit with air flow

Please post some pictures when you received them. I'm interested in them too. I wish someone could post some dyno results on it.

baller....no
enthusiast....yes
i always love to go fast but i also enjoy the ability to stick that vehicle in a show and win top honors . i'm a "show and go" kind of guy
yes sir someone else backed out on him so i was more than happy to take that spot . i will definately be posting pics for AZN and the rest of you that want to see the installed product . i will try my best to do a dyno comparison if i have the time .
