Description
The Mishimoto MMBCC-MS3-07PBE2 Baffled Oil Catch Can Kit is a PCV-side catch can built specifically for the 2007-2013 Mazda Mazdaspeed 3 and its 2.3L MZR turbo engine. Machined from 6061-T6 billet aluminum with a black anodized finish, this taller 7.5 oz. can was designed to intercept crankcase gases before they ever reach the Mazdaspeed 3’s top-mounted intercooler, a component prone to heat soak that bakes oil and fuel droplets directly into the heat exchanger.
Like many direct-injected, turbocharged car engines of its era, the Mazdaspeed 3 is known for carbon buildup caused by engine blow-by, and cold weather only increases the volume of oil vapor moving through the PCV system. Mishimoto sized this catch can larger than standard to handle those higher blow-by levels, helping protect downstream engine parts and intake components while supporting proper octane levels to reduce potential detonation. As a piece of the larger puzzle of parts of a car engine working together, this catch can plays a targeted role in keeping oil and fuel vapor out of places they don’t belong, extending the practical life of surrounding car parts and preserving the performance of key components of the automobile engine.
Vehicle Applications
This baffled oil catch can kit is a direct fit for the 2007-2013 Mazda Mazdaspeed 3, engineered around the factory PCV routing so it installs into the Mazdaspeed 3’s engine bay without modification to surrounding engine parts.
