Just wondering if there are any huge differences between one catch can to another. I plan on ordering one for my s14 swap, but is there really a huge difference between a $50 greddy one and a $150 kazama? Any suggestions, circuit sports, greddy, kazama?????

Cannister Volume.
You should size against Displacement/blow-by and oil capacity. (oil cooler adds more capacity).

A local hotrod guy did that to his car. Pretty cool I guess.
All catch cans do the same thing. As long as it isn't leaking air in from the outside. Size doesn't matter. It doesn't really fill up unless something is wrong.

I got a circuit sports one from Phase2 for $60. Nice complete kit, everything you need.

How much more oil does an oil cooler add to the system?

I rocked a gatorade catch can for awhile, 7-11 sell them for $1.50 and it comes with free gatorade, you can't beat it

That will depend on size of the cooler and how long the lines are. :duh:
my oil filter relocation kit gets just under 1quart more.
