Description
The Mishimoto Baffled Oil Catch Can Kit (MMBCC-F80-15CSO) is purpose-built for the S55-powered F8X chassis, giving the turbocharged BMW M3 and M4 a dedicated defense against crankcase blow-by. Machined from billet aluminum with a CNC-machined lid sized to match the CCV hose diameter, this catch can uses Mishimoto’s patent-pending 2-Port Compact Baffled design with a 50-micron bronze filter and internal baffle to pull oil out of crankcase vapors before they can reach sensitive intake components.
Every set of car engine parts benefits from keeping oil vapor and blow-by out of the intake tract, and this baffled oil catch can does exactly that for the components of your BMW’s engine bay. By trapping oil and contaminated fuel vapors instead of draining them back into the oil pan like many air-oil-separator systems, it helps defend the intercooler, intake system, and VANOS system while helping maintain proper octane levels to reduce potential detonation. An internal air diverter increases turbulence inside the can to further improve oil separation, and because the can and filter are fully serviceable, maintaining this piece of your car’s engine hardware is straightforward. It ships complete with a direct-fit billet aluminum mounting bracket, two direct-fit hoses, and two 3/4-inch aluminum barbed fittings, so installation requires no modification to the engine cover.
Vehicle Applications
This kit is a direct fit for the S55-powered F80/F82/F83/F87 chassis BMWs. Coverage includes the 2015-2018 BMW M3, the 2015-2020 BMW M4 (coupe and convertible), the 2016 BMW M4 GTS, the 2018-2020 BMW M4 CS, and the 2019-2020 BMW M2 Competition. If your BMW falls within these model years and chassis codes, this catch can kit installs without modifying the factory engine cover.
