We mainly sell a bunch of the Elite Engineering set ups. Very high quality and they are not over priced.

Maybe a dumb question but why do you need one? Not being snarky, just curious.

It's good to be curious.lol.
It catches the oil that are engines should burn off.
And gunks up our engines. You should watch a YouTube video, it's very interesting. I am ordering one just haven't made up my mind which brand I want.

It has been discussed a lot...when I was curious I did a google search...basically there is the "dirty" side and the "clean" side for oil bypass. The dirty side uses a catch can and the clean side uses a separator. Both are beneficial. The 1LE had a dealer option for a separator. For myself, I narrowed it down to Elite Engineering with the option to add the separator to the package. I think a lot of people recommend the Mishimoto.

Best is to look at actual testing done with catchcans. The Moroso traps app. 30% as you can see in this independent testing vs our Patented design that traps 95% plus. Same testing performed with Mishimoto and most any other design.


Our E2-X uses this patented design and is the most effective on the market period. Our "catchcan challenge" still stands where anyone is urged to do the testing the same way:





Very few cans on the market trap even 30% of what enters them, most fall into the 15% range, so you can;t rely on opinions or marketing hype, test yourself and see firsthand.

These absolutely work !!
Been many "discussions" over the years but I just emptied mine today while changing the oil and I bet there was a good 3-4 oz in it.
I empty it probably 3 times between each oil change with the same amount every one of them.

I pour out about 1/4 cup of oil from mine every 5000 to 7000 miles. That's oil that would be caking your intake otherwise.
