Right boys and girls a little while ago some people were asking me about catch tanks for there breather's off there induction kits!
Well ive just orderd a few more tanks that ive been using on polos for years! So you know they work and they come from a old boy who's work is top notch! (no cheep chinese ebay crap here!)
Anywho ive had them all done red (as they look the nuts) but if you REARLY want another colour and there is anothe intrest i could get another colour done!
there made of T-6061 ALUMINUM and come with 12mm outlets!
£36 pound each plus postage but being so light i cant emagen them costing more than a few pound 2 post anywere in the uk!
Or if some1 can sujest a cheep postage route

not sure tim ill have a look see if i have an old pic as i havent got anything in my engine bay at the moment
Best place ive found 2 fit them is down buy the headlights (as they fit in nicely and can be reached easerly for draining!) But there quite compact so will fit in a few differnt places!

I'm getting fund through soon so still interested mate.
Will you supply piping for it from the hose to the tank? If not what size would it require?

Count me out mate. I haven't got the funds unforunately.
Maybe when I'm back from uni and plan to clean up my engine bay I'll look at sourcing one then!!
Thanks alot for holding one aside all this time, I appreciate it
