I imported my BSH stage one from BSH direct for around £100.
Worth it in my opinion... I've been thinking about the catch can for a long time but meh.

Edit was just above to post the same as TC,  as he says the starting price is £100 for the Stage 2 kit, the latest one to finish in 2 hours is already at £146.

I was lucky to get mine when they first started selling them so got it for £100 as no one else bid on it  :smiley:

ok , quick summary so far

in the meantime a BSH PCV fix possible ebay / group buy thread... has popped up...

MOT compliant options

EuroJet PCV valve
uprated check valve & hose in the OEM location
£40

Forge oil seperator manifold and catch tank  
(not yet available but coming soon)
          
BSH Stage 1
no can , oil fumes still circulate

BSH Stage 2
(note there is an upgrade kit available from stage1 , which I presume adds a modified 'plate' and a catch can)

(there also appears to be a high capacity catch can with dipstick measure (from 7 to 32 floz) kit available , those above use the small catch can)


Non MOT compliant

BSH Race version

or DIY vent to air!

Just be careful if you want to purchase the larger size can as I'm pretty sure it won't fit on the driver's side with the charcoal cannister in situ. It should fit on the passenger side though.

cheers bacillus  :happy2:
would you consider the 'small' catch can to be sufficient?
and if it fills up fully is that an issue?

I think the smaller can is more than adequate for most folk provided you drain it every 1500 miles or so initially.
What's captured in the can really varies from car to car, what type of driving you do and time of year (you collect more during the colder months vs summer). You should get a feel after 2-3 draining on how much "stuff" you're collecting though I do wish the can came with a view window.

If the can fills up then only the excess collection after that point will go back through the return hose to the inlet valve port but hopefully with due diligence it should never get to that point.
