Thanks for the quick response! I will give you a call about another bracket in about an hour.
You have run into a tricky situation! This is why we offer two different mounting locations, however you have a car/setup that doesn't have either available! We are currently working on an "upgrade" kit for a third mounting location, which tentatively will include an additional bracket and hardware so that it will be easier to mount to the plastic firewall at the back of the engine bay. Look for updates with DoS for this process as well If you get anxious, give a call into the shop and I we'll send you another bracket
Cut the hoses at the end to length depending on where you mount the can, the length of the hoses needed will change.

Alright guys, been a busy day over here at BSH, but I have some great news. We have updated all the R56 Catch Cans in our inventory to include a DipStick for easy viewing! The price increase is at a minimal $10, and for a lucky few of you, got the new version of the Catch Can without the price hike. (You can thank me by taking pictures ) Anyways, we are always looking to bring you the best product possible at an affordable price and here it is!
For those of you that already have a BSH Catch Can, and want a DipStick, I have great news. We will be offering a Update Program for the Street and Competition Catch Can, inwhich you ship us your Catch Can and we will drill it out, clean it up, weld it up, add in the dipstick and then re-powdercoat it for only $20 bucks + shipping. I didn't want to forget about you guys! Also, if you have a Catch Can with an older style Drain Plug, we will updated it at this time as well Estimated turn around for this service is 2 weeks, maybe sooner.

For anyone else that is looking into upgrading their catch can, please contact me prior to shipping out your catch can, to obtain the proper form and Return #
The dipstick is an o-ring seal, and IF the O-ring fails, there wouldn't be a vacuum leak. The catch can is placed in the crank case pressure circulation and under failure, there might be un-metered air entering the system, but not a vacuum leak. You will be surprised how well the O-ring seals without using threading.

Post some pics, I haven't seen any installs with the new DipStick, and am anxious to see how it looks! Im sure the owners of the catch cans I've got for upgrade are too!

I could move the switch, but I would have no idea where to put it. Also if the switch is not depressed I think it would mess with my alarm when I tried to lock my car. I could tape the switch down, but that kinda deletes the point of the alarm. Plus I cannot freaking find out how to unscrew the switch because once you unplug it there is a plastic connector in the way that blocks the screw.

Just installed mine. It's dark so I can't take a pic yet. Hardest part was separating the pcv hose from the sensor, was on there pretty tight. Inserting the PCV adapter plug into the sensor was also a pain, but rubbing a little oil on the o-rings and twisting it on was quite easy. Otherwise, still need to install the boost port plug which should be easy, but I need the correct allen key. Otherwise, looks good so far!

I just finished my BSH OCC and DBP install as well. Install was pretty straight forward, with a small snag when I was trying to pull the old hose from the sensor. It didn't move much at all, so I took my heat gun and on the lowest setting warmed up the hose and was able to muscle it out.
When I pulled out the hose to install the DBP, this is what greeted me:
Thank you Sushil and BSH for setting me up with two plugs for my DBP, so I only have to run one OCC. Great service, and great OCC!

I have 2 questions questions for BSH. Why is your logo upside down on the boost tap and the plastic part that goes into the turbo inlet hose? And why don't you guys silkscreen a logo on the side or top of the can?
And lastly how are you guys that have installed the catch can planning on emptying it when its time do so? Take the whole thing apart and empty it from the drain hole?
