OBP Subaru specific make sure it's the big port one with 14mm ports & 22mm vent. Or the RCM one is good & comes with all the pipes but is pricey.

It is a 3 port but 11mm & not the larger 14mm. It's fine for standard power but not good enough for high boost. £25 posted anywhere in the UK.

Can't seem to find a link for them on eBay mate. I'm running around 350hp so guessing yours will be no good.

Martin, Others may disagree but this is the first 3 port one I have had, All my previous where 2 port, simply 'T' 2 pipes into one, I did it as close to the catcher as possible and have never had a problem? Just a thought if your struggling

Martin, I got mine direct from OBP and they are very good quality and are correct out of the box plus their baffled.

Also worth considering are the 3 port CDF Racing catch cans as well, they're baffled and I think there is or was a group buy being run on them as well.

Andy so you think a 2 port will be ok with T piece?

Ty I dropped them an email at OBP, I'll have a search see if any things going on re group buy

You may get away with it, but at that power I'd rather not sell it to you. Mine is at 450 & I had to go to the big port version due to a breather issue caused by too smaller ports. Type OBP catch can into EBAY, should come up then select the one with the larger ports

Personally yer I think you would be fine pal. Depends if you want to future proof though dosnt it?

My type R was running 390bhp with no problems on a 2 port.

If it was me, and I know your like me! I would try and get a 3 port, but if your really struggling grab a 2 port for now, you can always change down the line if needed?

That's the one. Top tip, buy your pipework from ASH & you need a 22mm 90 degree elbow for the vent port on top.
