After reading the huge thread in the 09+ section about a oil separator I would never run a L&S or any style separator that uses a air compressor filter. I have a UPR on my truck and love it, RX is another great set up.

The funny thing is back in 2001 when I built my first engine, 91 Nissan 240sx KA24DE, I made an oil catch can out of misc crap laying around the shop. Took a pvc glue, yes pvc, can and drilled a couple holes in the lid just big enough to fit some hose through and stuffed it about half full of fine steel wool. Ran the "in" side of the hose about 3/4 down the can and the "out" side maybe 1/2" past the lid. I had a radiator hose bracket that I bolted to the front of the engine that fit the can perfectly. Pained it metallic blue to match my VC & pulleys and was good to go. Thing actually worked pretty good keeping the oil out of the intake.
