Thank you, I'm going to order some black hose clamps. So silver ones stick out to much.

Great looking install. Could always paint them black.

I may try that first. Black clamps are pretty expensive.

To original poster...Did you VTA your sport? It looks like you did and I want to do mine. When you removed the hose on the front one did you plug up both holes with the plugs? It looks like you did but I'm not sure if I need to plug both or not. Sorry to get off topic here as I'm looking into doing the catch can on mine as well.
I personaly think they do work if mounted in a good location by the front bumper area,just like a intake it needs adequate ventilation in order for it to function properly,RX makes a great quality unit and of course Eco power parts has a plug and play catch can which looks very promising made by UPR which i would definetly recommend,pics below is my RX front clean side seperator,and also heres a little diagram,hope it helps any.

I think you should try to remove any excess oil inside the CAC by jacking preferably the drivers side and having preferably the dealer suck up all the oil residue with a compressor type suction gun before adding any type of catch can,a buddy of mine which is a senior tech at Ford performed it for me and only takes a few min,especially if you notice oil by the TB and intake,something to really take into consideration.

Guys, sorry to resurect an old thread, but I am installing the can on my 16 and hit a bit of a wrinkle. My pcv pipe from the front port that will get capped to the intake pipe has a sensor on it. This sensor is going to be removed with the pipe upon ccs install. The sensor was not mentioned in any install wrietups and I have no idea what its for. Can someone shed some light on it. I can not imagine I can simply leave it out. Thanks
Here is the photo of the pipe. It is what will become the CCS side line...more or less. The sensor in question is in the middle of the pipe.
They also shipped 3/8" NPT fittings, which I had a heck of a time trying to to find a tap for. Have yet to do that.
Also, they shipped a length of clear hose. Not sure what I am supposed to do with that.
Gee, for over $300, I would expect vehicle specific instructions for this kit.....

Here's the link from Ford but in my opinion its an EGR Sensor,also RX only shows diagrams from 11-14 Ecoboost. Z http://www.rxspeedworks.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/Ford-EcoBoost.pdf

Agreed on the instructions. That's why I did such a detailed write up. Lol
Not sure what the sensor is for either. My 14 didn't have it.
3/8"NPT taps aren't too bad to find. I would check a real, local type hardware store, or a plumbing shop.
Pretty sure the clear hose is to affix to the bottom of the CC valve to make for a less messy drain procedure. ...if you need it.

Depending where you drilling you may not to need to tap. On my css I drilled the air box with the appropriate size hole and the plastic nipple was able thread in on its own.
