Description
The Mishimoto Compact Baffled Oil Catch Can, part number MMBCC-CBTHR-RD, is the 3-Port version of Mishimoto’s compact catch can lineup, machined from red-finished 6061 billet aluminum and engineered after years of oil catch can research and development. It is built to intercept oil particles from PCV/CCV air before that air reaches the intake, keeping the system cleaner without relying on heat to process blow-by.
Inside this Performance-grade catch can, an internal air diverter turbulates incoming air longer so oil droplets have time to sink to the bottom of the can, while an internal baffle keeps that collected oil from sloshing around under hard driving. Only clean air is allowed to pass onward through a 50 micron bronze filter. Unlike heated air-oil-separator systems that drain blow-by back into the oil pan, this Mishimoto catch can is unheated, letting low-octane oil vapors and contaminated fuel vapors condense and stay trapped in the can rather than recirculating into the engine oil. For anyone researching car engine parts, parts of a car engine, or components of an automobile engine that protect the intake tract from blow-by contamination, this compact catch can is a direct-fit accessory for that job.
Vehicle Applications
Mishimoto lists no make-, model-, or engine-specific applications for this particular catch can, and the included universal mounting bracket is designed to let the can be mounted from multiple angles, giving installers flexibility to fit it into a variety of engine bay layouts on vehicles equipped with PCV or CCV systems.
