Wow oil catch can matches nicely with the rest of the engine bay

[BSH Speedshop]

Hi guys, this is Phill@BSH, just wanted to post a couple of things regarding the new system. For all sales inquiries, please talk to one of our supporting dealers.

All of our catch cans feature aluminum mesh baffling on the inside. This approach is used to obviously aid in the condensing of the oil vapors and also to allow the catch can to "breath". Ultimately the goal of the PCV system is to vent pressure from the engine so when designing our catch can lineup this was kept as the first priority with an efficient oil separation system being a VERY close second. No sense in robbing Peter to pay Paul would be the easy way to put it.

Here is an image of the baffling.


And this is what we are collecting!!


Hope that was what you were looking for. Thank you for your interest.

Please keep in mind that the majority of automotive consumers neglect to change their oil on time, try and tell that same person to "Drain your catch can" and well I am sure you can see how that would end up.

Wow... looks like a great OCC. Can't wait for pricing. Hope it's not that expensive.

Thats quite a lot of "stuff".

When I checked my CC it was just oil, why does yours look like transmission fluid though LOL?

That fluid in that pic is not from a N54 engine BMW? Correct?

[mwscircle]

That is correct. Thats from an FSI engine, aka the most horribly disgusting motor on the planet. As we have been spending more and more time with BMW's I am getting more and more eager to make the switch.

True, never have seen a worse gunked up head than on the VAG FSI motors that have gone on the extended period oil services. People complain about the factory intervals here, they should goggle up some images of those motors on the factory intervals!

I strongly believe that an oil catch can is a great thing to have. Considering that we have direct injection motors, meaning the fuel gets inserted in the combustion chamber and not in the intake manifold, we should be seeing a lot less carbon deposits on the valves.

...provided that we are able to deal with the oil fumes properly. On the other hand, should any fumes manage to escape from the oil catch can, they will definitely be captured by our intercoolers.

In all fairness, removing your intercooler and cleaning it once a year is a small price to pay in my opinion.

[Renus]

Please PM me the price, thanks ^ ^

More pics of the installed OCC please! I'd like to see how the adapters connect to the PCV.

Also, what's with the o-rings? Those were a big source of leaks on the RR OCC....

Great job guys !!! its so clean i didnt notice it in the first pass on the example photos .. looks real OEM ... and the fittings are brilliant .. my hat is off to you all for some hard work.. just concerned about the dipstick seal .. it that a Viton o-ring.. over a period of time if the housing remains hot that seal is gonna harden and lose its seal ...

just waiting on price... cuz this one looks like itll get the job done..
been holding out for a year now, looking for the right stuff

Thanks for the kind words! Outside of the fact that we warranty our products we also are very careful to use common parts so in case you need something on the fly its not an "overnight from Japan" type situation. That said, we have been using these O-rings for a while and they were chosen for their heat and oil resistance.

[BSH Speedshop]

Now for some more pictures. All production fittings feature a military spec black hard anodized finish, all hose clamps, dont have such long legs on them once installed!!

The O-rings seen in the initial photos are part of a "twin seal" design. The billet fittings are machined to carry two O-rings each. They are designed to directly plug into the factory pcv connections without using some crazy plastic deals... This way you get a clean simple installation that maintains -10 sizing throughout. All the fittings but the one with the angle fitting are push lock so you dont need a bunch of hose clamps cluttering up an otherwise gorgeous engine bay.

Here are the pics, let me know if I can provide any further explanation.

....

Actually the opposite is true. Since no fuel hence no cleaning additives pass by the valves carbon build up is greater. It opens the great dabate of top engine cleaning etc.. If you don't believe this just search, there are a few people who have already had carbon issues with valves on the N54 and many many more on other platforms.

We arent allowed to post any of that information. I am certain one of our dealers will be throwing it up shortly though.

Thank you Phil for your continued support and commitment towards the product

The official release thread is up on the sponsors section under Turbo Engine / Drivetrain / Exhaust Parts for any of you who are interested in the price of the product. I've also sent everyone who posted a response a PM with further details.

[Biturbo3]

This looks like a great system.... and so far support from the manufacture and the retailer seem top notch. Definitely considering the BSH oil catch can over the compilation now.

[ridin135]

There is a sale price on 1addicts for 233 which to me is still way to much, I think I might just end up diy this

The BSH Competition Oil Catch Can is priced competitively with other kits on the market and I do strongly believe that it is ONE if not the best catch cans out there.

[klipseracer]

Haha this thing is so cool. I can see a little bit of oil on the tip of the stick now, hehe.
