(If you can locate 12" ties, you'll only need two or three tops)
Fashion two 8" zip ties like so. If you locate longer 12" ties, Ignore this step..
I mount the GReddy catch can to the coolant tubing on the passenger side.
To the left of the coolant reservoir, there is a vertical pipe.
Run the combined zip ties under the elbow bend in the reservoir meter, and around the pipe next to the reservoir.
Keep it snug for now.
Run the next pair of 8" zip ties under the two Bolts that run to the PCV valve & TB, and close the loop around 90 degree bend of the same "AC pipe" that you fastened the mid-section of the catch can to.
Use pliers to pull and fasten the ties as needed. Clip any excess or zip tie length to keep neat and away from hot metal, etc.
With wraps on only those two areas, there should be no jiggling on rough roads or rubbing against your car's engine compartment.
Remove the 90 degree bend off the PCV and replace the GReddy tubes (Hector included copper tubing to prevent collapse during vacuum).
Use a screwdriver or 1/4" socket to do so.
Then you're done!

I've noticed some people run zip ties towards the bottom of the can as well, but I've had no problems with the catch can sliding around or scraping the car.
Heat during Florida summers has not affected the zip ties or fitment.
Enjoy! I've gone thousands of miles before emptying the can, and it still wasn't full. Catches a lot of oil, though. That's the best thing about the GReddy. It's huge compared to the $20 catch can so you don't have to watch it as much.
