as long as youre having to empty it id say its doing a beter job than the standard system. I'll be filling mine with some wire wool just to help catch particles and what not lol

I dont think they get very hot, just as hot as the engine bay would get i just like to know that if i do something i dont need to check it again and with sealant or any kind of adhesive id be wondering if it was still in place lol just me being weird

somethin i tried ages ago!!! 15mm pipe but holes need drilling into it... put this on the side when the vapours come in and it should work fine.... only thing is the thread needs extending as i dont know how much thread is sticking thru once theyre put into the top of the can

Go to a machining place and get them to make you some adapters that have the correct thread but 19mm and then you don't need to use adapters or anything, looks much better imho
