Yup...not sure which one to go after.
Not doing both.
Fairly high horsepower car. Spins up quickly.

I know it is burning some oil. Gotta do something.
Opinions??

Catch can. I'm not a fan of the breathers, too much oil contamination.

from what I've read on ls1tech, people don't like breathers because it lets out metered air. Most said to run breathers on a track car, and a catch can on a street/strip car. Like I said this is what I've heard from others, correct me if I am wrong.

That is what I thought.
This car sees the track...but is mostly a street car.
What has everyone done for a catch can?? Spent the $160 and gotten the really nice one? EBay?? Home Depot?
