:: ECS Tuning :: NEW!! B8 A4 2.0T ECS Baffled Oil Catch Can
http://www.ecstuning.com/sales/ecs600header.jpg
Introducing ECS Tuning's newest release, the Performance Baffled Oil Catch Can System, engineered in-house and manufactured in the USA. Our system was designed with the consumer in mind to provide effortless installation with no necessary modifications to be a perfect fit for your 2.0T. With no required modification, this performance system is also fully reversible and even fits beneath the factory engine cover! Today's direct fuel injection systems have taken engine performance to a whole new level, but there is a drawback. Without fuel vapor to help clean the intake valves, the oil particles that are drawn into the intake from the PCV system will deposit themselves onto the valves and intake ports. Over time this will result in increased levels of carbon buildup which can hinder performance and fuel economy. Key benefits of the ECS Baffled Oil Catch Can System: Highly Efficient Oil Separator (Catch Can)
Eliminates the Front PCV Port
Most catch cans replace of the factory PCV (positive crankcase ventilation) system, however the ECS Tuning Performance Baffled Oil Catch Can System utilizes key components of the OEM PCV system to expand on it's efficiency by retaining ultra-fine oil vapor that has already passed through the factory fine oil separator. This also provides the benefit of not having to empty the oil can catch as often as other systems on the market, since the oil vapor will be filtered through two components before reaching the intake tract. Although the OEM PCV system performs well and meets emissions standards, installing ECS Tuning's Performance Baffled Oil Catch Can System will increase efficiency of the PCV system and keep the ultra-fine oil vapor contained in the blow-by gases from entering your intake system and causing excessive power loss and carbon buildup. Each system includes the following:

B8.5 just refers to exterior not the engine. Jason |
Thanks - good to know!
Some folks may get confused (like me!) so perhaps it may be a good idea to mention that on the product page :) |

After reading the installation manual in great detail, it looks like the supply line runs slightly downhill before reaching the catch can. What keeps the oil from simply puddling in the low point of the supply line? Thx Jason

Good question. Though oil should not pool in the lines because it is still in suspension as it's flowing to the catch can. The baffled design is meant to remove the oil particles from suspension and trap them inside the can which allows the cleanest air to return to the intake

Based on looking at the PDF it appears that you are bi-passing the stock PCV system. Is that what the kit does otherwise why would you cap off the PCV assembly. Is there any function of the PCV system with this installed. This would seem to not have a reason to purchase one of your PCV replacements. What am I missing.
If you read through this whole thread you'll see how our kit is integrated in with the factory PCV. Jason |
So when i try to order parts for my 2009 audi a4 base model i dont have to worry about the b8 part as long as what im ordering is internals ?
