Installation is super easy...no drilling and no special tools are needed. NOTE: This kit has been redesigned to fit on the firewall directly behind the outlet of the airbox. It uses the factory tab located on the firewall."Forum experts and social hysteria" say an OCC is not needed but we beg to differ. Why do so many MINI owners suffer from carbon buildup on their intake valve? The answer is oil being recycled through the intake tract to be burned. With the M7 Oil Catch Can, your MINI Cooper's engine will be protected from excessive oil and hydrocarbon buildup which leads to performance-hindering oil film and sludge along your intake tract, on your engine control sensors and on your engine's intake valves. Because the 2007 & up MINI is direct injection the intake valves do not benefit from the cleaning action provided by the gasoline as in older port injection engines. Now all the oil blow-by burns onto the intake valves and builds up into a flow choking hydrocarbon mess. The end result is loss of power and a very expensive repair bill. This oil film & sludge can appear in other critical places throughout the engine-- such as the intercooler-- where clean surfaces are critical for maximized heat transfer and on your MAF sensor (Mass Air Flow) where the film will cause the sensor to send a false signal to your ECU killing performance.

By capturing excess oil vapor and particles, the M7 Oil Catch Can ensures that oil film and sludge will not become a factor in your vehicle's performance. If you don't think your engine is pumping oil back through your intake system, remove the breather tube and look at all the oil!. The breather tube connects directly to you intake hose and directs this oily mess back through your engine to be burned.

Now with our exclusive "Exact-Fit" pre-assembled hose kit and brackets installation is super-easy.

R55-R59 Oil Catch Can Kit for N18 MINI Engines

Introducing the newly updated R55 through R59 Oil Catch Can kit for MINIs equipped with the N16 or N18 engine. This kit includes a "designed-to-fit" stainless steel bracket, mounting hardware, and pre-assembled hoses for easy installation—no drilling or special tools needed. Note: This kit has been redesigned to fit directly behind the outlet of the airbox on the firewall, using the factory tab located on the firewall.

Despite skepticism from "forum experts and social hysteria," an Oil Catch Can (OCC) is essential. Many MINI owners suffer from carbon buildup on their intake valve due to oil being recycled through the intake tract. With the M7 Oil Catch Can, your MINI Cooper's engine will be protected from excessive oil and hydrocarbon buildup, preventing performance-hindering oil film and sludge. Direct injection in 2007 & up MINIs exacerbates the issue, leading to oil blow-by burning onto intake valves, resulting in power loss and expensive repairs.

By capturing excess oil vapor and particles, the M7 Oil Catch Can ensures optimal engine performance. Now with our exclusive "Exact-Fit" pre-assembled hose kit and brackets, installation is super easy.

Features:

• Pre-assembled hose assemblies
• Stainless steel bracket and mounting hardware
• Eliminates intake tract oil contamination and intake valve damage
• Prevents premature sensor failure
• Maintains engine performance at peak levels
• Carbon Fiber canister with billet bright aluminum top and bottom

The M7 Oil Catch Can is not only functional but also a work of automotive performance ART! It features a 100% carbon fiber housing with CNC machined billet aluminum top and bottom, adding a sharp look to your engine compartment.

The sight tube allows you to monitor the oil level in the can. The hoses are high-quality "Made in the USA" automotive grade, designed to withstand the rigors of the under-hood environment without degradation.
