You will need to adjust idle.

Most of the recirculating catch cans out there have fairly small ports, while this is setup with 1/2" npt ports with 3/4" barb fittings to accomodate the larger AOS hose on our cars. Saikou Michi worked directly with a couple of us to make this can specifically for our cars. We are still working through a couple different mounting options, as not everyone can mount it in place of the washer tanks like Kevin did. Pricing is not officially set but will be under $100, which makes if one of the best priced catch can options out there, and as John aptly put it, it"does something other than be a shiny gadget".

I'll be anxious to see this on your car - sounds like a good reason for a trip to the local pub. Let me know when you have it on ...I may end up doing the same.
Cheers,
Rick
