IIRC, the Forge offering has a view 'window'.

You might also have to sell a kidney to buy one.

To be honest though, if you didnt like the standard catch can offered in the Stage 2 fix, you could easily buy a £20 one from ebay that will do the job perfectly.

for the guys who have these installed, whould the tap at the bottom be screwed in at all times or open up, as ive been running mine for over 500miles and nothing has collected in there yet..

You want the tap closed at all times except when draining and else you'll experience a boost leak.

I wouldn't worry about the lack of condensed gunge in the can atm as the weather is good. When it turns colder the can will start filling at a greater rate.
Without traction power is nothing!

It should be screwed all the way out, as the value is at the top of the thread inside the can so is closed when the screw is out  :happy2:
