Does just that, catches oil.
That little tube that comes out of the head into your intake tubing, well that has excess oil that goes back thru the intake, some people put little breather filters on to prevent oil from going back into your intake system but it always gets dirty around and stuff.
The oil catch can has that little tubing that goes thru the can, it catches the oil and you have a clean tube that goes back into your intake.
Ill post pics when its installed cause im going to do it this weekend most likely.

Total cost up to now is very close to 1300 canadian dollars. The exchange rate is equal between US and CAD dollars now.
I still have to pay import duty fees on 3 orders coming in from the USA that i don't know the amount yet.

I hope that obx wastegate doesn't cause any issues. I think you should have gone with a tial. They don't cost that much more and are more reliable, that's my opinion anyways.
What kind of turbo is it that you are dropping in?

I got the OBX because my friend found a guy on forums selling it with the HKS ssqv bov and the aem wideband all together for a very good price so i got all 3.
The turbo is a t3/t4 hybrid from CX Racing. Their oil feed system i bought with it has built in oil restriction so i wont blow the seals after a month.
A friend of mine has one of their turbo and oil feed kits and his car been turboed for just over 2 years. Never had a problem yet. He's the one who recommended me to buy from them.

That's not too bad then, just keep an eye out for boost creep.
Hope you have the same luck he has.
