Description
The Mishimoto Compact Baffled Oil Catch Can, 3-Port (MMBCC-CBTHR-P) is a purpose-built engine component engineered to pull oil out of your car engine’s PCV/CCV airflow before it ever reaches the intake. Machined from 100-percent billet 6061 aluminum and finished in polished aluminum, this three-port can pairs an internal air diverter with a 50 micron bronze filter and an internal baffle, making it one of the most refined pieces of hardware among car engine parts designed for oil separation.
As blow-by gas moves through the can, the internal air diverter turbulates the air longer so oil particles have time to condense and sink to the bottom, leaving clean air to pass through the bronze filter toward the intake. Unlike heated air-oil-separator systems, this catch can is unheated, allowing low-octane oil vapors and contaminated fuel vapors to condense out of the blow-by instead of being routed back into the engine, which helps maintain proper octane levels and reduce potential detonation. It’s a smart addition for anyone thinking through the components of an automobile engine and how to keep the intake tract and intercooler protected from oil contamination. The internal baffle also keeps collected oil from splashing under race conditions, and because both the filter and can are fully serviceable and 100-percent washable, maintaining this piece among your engine parts doesn’t mean replacing filtration media every time.
Vehicle Applications
This Mishimoto Compact Baffled Oil Catch Can is a universal-fit component rather than a model-specific part — Mishimoto lists no specific vehicle applications, engine codes, or chassis codes for this catch can. Its M16x1.5 inlet and outlet threads, included barbed fittings, and universal top mounting bracket are intended to give installers flexibility, letting the can be mounted from multiple angles to suit a wide variety of engine bay layouts.
