Description
The Mishimoto MMOFH-GEN6-10 oil filter housing replaces the factory canister-style housing on the Hyundai Genesis Coupe’s V6 with a CNC-machined 6061 aluminum housing finished in black. As one of the more overlooked components of an automobile engine, the stock canister housing restricts the use of a standard oil sandwich plate, and Mishimoto engineered this housing specifically to fix that limitation with a switch to a spin-on filter design.
This part is a genuine upgrade among engine components for anyone who tracks their Genesis Coupe or has modified their engine to run hotter than stock. By converting from a cartridge filter to a spin-on filter, this housing simplifies one of the more tedious parts of a car engine to service — oil changes — while opening up the ability to run a sandwich plate for oil temperature management. The kit gives builders the freedom to piece together their own oil cooler setup with -AN lines, which is especially useful for unique mounting applications or engine bays where a direct-fit oil cooler kit won’t clear due to space constraints. Every Mishimoto engine component in this kit, right down to the included O-rings, is backed by Mishimoto’s lifetime warranty.
