Description
The Mishimoto Baffled Oil Catch Can (MMBCC-CIV-22P) is a direct-fit engine component engineered specifically for the L15B7 and L15CA 1.5L turbocharged engines found in the 2022+ Honda Civic and 2023+ Acura Integra. Machined from billet 6061-T6 aluminum with a twist-off can and black CNC-machined, anodized aluminum fittings, this catch can is built to intercept the oily blow-by that plagues direct injection engines before it ever reaches your intake valves.
Blow-by is an unavoidable side effect of forced induction: as pressurized gases recirculate through the PCV system, oil particles hitch a ride and coat the intake system and intake valves, eventually contributing to carbon buildup and reduced octane in the combustion chamber. On a direct injection engine like the L15B7, this carbon buildup on intake valves can be especially harsh. This Mishimoto catch can separates that oil mixture from the air heading back into the intake by routing it through a 50-micron bronze filter and an internal air diverter baffle, which creates turbulence so oil droplets condense and drip into the canister instead of your intake tract, keeping the air flowing back into the system clean.
Vehicle Applications
This kit is a direct fit for the 2022–2024 Honda Civic EX, Sport, Sport Touring, and Touring, the 2022–2023 Honda Civic EX-L, and the 2022–2026 Honda Civic Si, all equipped with the 1.5L turbocharged L15B7 engine. It also fits the 2023–2026 Acura Integra Base, A-Spec, and Elite A-Spec, which share the L15CA 1.5L turbocharged engine and FL/DE4 chassis platform. The application-specific mounting bracket locates the can at the firewall for easy access and vibration isolation, and includes provisions to secure the factory fuel line.

Frequently Asked Questions
What vehicles does the Mishimoto MMBCC-CIV-22P catch can fit?
This catch can is a direct fit for the 2022–2024 Honda Civic EX, Sport, Sport Touring, and Touring; the 2022–2023 Honda Civic EX-L; the 2022–2026 Honda Civic Si; and the 2023–2026 Acura Integra Base, A-Spec, and Elite A-Spec, all equipped with the 1.5L turbocharged engine (engine codes L15B7 and L15CA).
How does the Mishimoto baffled oil catch can filter oil from blow-by gases?
Air entering the catch can flows through a 50-micron bronze filter and then an internal air diverter baffle, which helps capture oily particles and allows them to condense until they are heavy enough to drip into the canister, leaving cleaner air to flow back into the intake system.
What is the catch can made of?
The can is machined from billet 6061-T6 aluminum with black CNC-machined aluminum fittings and an anodized finish.
How long does installation take?
According to Mishimoto, the kit installs in thirty minutes or less using the included direct-fit steel powder-coated bracket, pre-formed application-specific SAE J30R7 hoses, and all required hardware.
Is the catch can reusable?
Yes, the can is 100% washable, so the filtration system never needs to be replaced.
What is the maximum can capacity and how often should it be checked?
The can has a 3 oz. capacity. Mishimoto recommends checking the contents of the baffled catch can every 1,000 miles until a baseline is established, and notes that oil blow-by accumulation will vary with ambient temperatures and driving conditions.
