Airtec Motorsport Oil Catch Can upgrade for the Mini Cooper S and JCW F56 (Pre-LCI), developed as an essential preventative upgrade for direct-injection engines used both on the track and for sporty road driving.
In direct-injection engines, the original crankcase ventilation system can, over time, lead to carbon build-up in the Intake system. Oil and vapour residues form a contaminating layer on the Intake ports and valves, resulting in reduced airflow, performance and efficiency.
The Airtec catch can captures these contaminants before they reach the Intake system. This keeps the engine cleaner and prevents the need for costly cleaning treatments.
The kit has been specifically developed for the F56 Pre-LCI and utilises a high-quality billet aluminium mounting bracket, finished in satin black, ensuring the catch can is neatly and securely positioned in the engine compartment.
The catch can itself features an internal baffle and an oil dipstick, and is easy to remove for maintenance. The set comes complete with Pro Hoses silicone hoses, all fixing materials and clear fitting instructions.
Please note: this kit is suitable for Pre-LCI models only and does not fit facelift (LCI) versions.
