Description
The Mishimoto Baffled Oil Catch Can Kit, part number MMBCC-F80-15CYMB, was engineered specifically for the S55-powered F8X chassis BMW M3 and M4, the first compact M cars to come from the factory with turbocharged engines. Built around Mishimoto’s patent-pending 2-Port Compact Baffled Oil Catch Can design, this kit pairs a 50-micron bronze filter and internal baffle with an application-specific, CNC-machined lid so the fitting size matches your CCV line exactly.
As a dedicated engine component for the S55, this catch can addresses the long-standing reality of crankcase blow-by in turbocharged car engines. Unlike heated OEM air-oil-separator systems that drain contaminated vapor back into the oil pan, this Mishimoto catch can traps oil particles and contaminated fuel vapor and keeps them out of the engine permanently, helping defend the intercooler, intake system, and VANOS system while helping maintain proper octane levels to reduce potential detonation. For anyone digging into the components of an automobile engine and how oil separation protects downstream parts of a car, this kit is a direct, practical upgrade for the engine bay.
Vehicle Applications
This catch can kit is a direct fit for the 2015-2018 BMW M3, the 2015-2020 BMW M4 Coupe/Convertible, the 2016 BMW M4 GTS, the 2018-2020 BMW M4 CS, and the 2019-2020 BMW M2 Competition-all built on the F80/F82/F83/F87 chassis around the S55 engine. The included direct-fit hoses and application-specific billet aluminum mounting bracket require no modification to the engine cover, so installation stays straightforward across every one of these S55-equipped models.
