Baffled Oil Catch Can for 2015-2016 Subaru WRX
An oil catch can is designed to capture excess oil and contaminants that escape past the engine's piston seals and enter the crankcase. While oil is essential for lubrication, some inevitably result in blow-by. The catch can prevent this blow-by from re-entering the engine's air intake, protecting engine performance.
Fitment:
2015-2016 Subaru WRX

Are oil catch cans bad for your car?
Oil catch cans are simple devices that greatly benefit direct injection engines. The oil catch cans prevent oil and other contaminants from causing a buildup of debris inside the engine's intake manifold
How Does an Oil Catch Work?
An oil catch can intercept and capture oil vapor and contaminants before they reach the engine's intake. Connected to the engine's ventilation system, it slows and redirects gases, allowing heavier oil particles to condense and collect at the bottom. This prevents oil from reentering the intake, protecting engine performance and extending its lifespan.
Features:
- Carbon Buildup Prevention: Oil catch cans capture oil vapors and contaminants before they reach the intake, preventing carbon deposits on valves and maintaining engine efficiency.
- Improved Airflow: By keeping the intake system clean, oil catch cans ensure smooth airflow, leading to better combustion and throttle response.
- Enhanced Performance: With reduced carbon buildup, the engine operates more efficiently, boosting horsepower and torque for a more powerful driving experience.
-
Reduced Engine Knock: Oil catch cans prevent oil vapor from causing pre-ignition or engine knock, protecting the engine from potential damage.
Extended Engine Lifespan: By reducing contaminants, oil catch cans help minimize wear on critical engine components, extending engine life and reducing maintenance costs.
Owners of the 2015-2016 Subaru WRX often face the issue of oil blow-by, where oil vapors from the PCV system enter the intake, leading to carbon deposits on intake valves. This can reduce engine efficiency, decrease power, and cause long-term damage. The Flashark Baffled Oil Catch Can Kit is designed to solve this problem by capturing and separating oil and contaminants before they reach the intake system. This keeps the intake valves clean, improves throttle response, enhances engine performance, and prolongs engine life, ensuring your WRX delivers peak performance and reliability.
