Question 1

How does this catch can differ from air-oil separator (AOS) systems?

Accepted Answer

Mishimoto catch cans are not heated, which allows all blow-by to condense in the can, including low-octane oil vapors and contaminated fuel vapors. Also, most AOS systems drain the blow-by back into the oil pan, while this catch can traps the blow-by and keeps it out of the engine permanently.

Question 2

What is blow-by and why should I be concerned about it?

Accepted Answer

Blow-by is the excess oil vapor and unburnt fuel that makes its way past the piston rings and into the crankcase. If not properly filtered, blow-by can coat the intercooler, intake system, and VANOS system, potentially causing damage and reducing performance over time.

Question 3

Is this catch can legal for use in my state?

Accepted Answer

Check your local and state laws regarding emissions control devices. Mishimoto's catch can is designed to prevent oil and other contaminants from entering the intake system, which can help reduce emissions, but it's important to ensure compliance with all applicable regulations.
