HMS Oil Separator Catch Cans were
designed by automotive enthusiasts for those who expect a higher
standard of performance from their vehicle and wish to help extend the
life of their engine by decreasing
oil contamination from the intake tract to the combustion chamber. Months of
research and testing has
provided HMS with a unique and functional kit that has worked flawlessly on the
Ford Mustang as well as
many other vehicle makes and models......supercharged, turbocharged and n/a!
This design works with Supercharged, Turbocharged and N/A engines! The internal
design of the
oil separator can is superior in function to other catch cans on the
market. Oil vapors and other contaminates
are first caught and condensed by a stainless mesh and then dropped to the
bottom of the can where a series
of under-cuts in the walls prevent the oil from climbing back to the top and
exiting back into the intake tract.
Oil contamination derives from the
positive crankcase ventilation valve ( low pressure/high vacuum for positive
displacement blowers) common on most internal combustion engines where
vacuum is pulled on the crankcase
by the intake. This contamination occurs when oil vapors exit the
crankcase via the PCV valve /vent hose, enter
the intake tract, and create adverse effects such as carbon build-up on valves,
pistons, and plugs, as well as
cause harmful detonation. Detonation in many cases causes the ECM/PCM to retard
timing, thus creating a
reduction in horsepower. Power adders such as turbos, blowers, or nitrous can
benefit greatly due to the
removal of oil contamination in the combustion process. Oil degrades the octane
of the fuel!
Here are some example pictures of
the intake tract / intercooler on our 2007 Saleen supercharged Mustang.

As you can see, there is a large amount of oil saturating the intercooler and
s/c housing.
This is only after 5000 miles of use! The 4th pic is after we cleaned the
s/c housing and
removed oil "as much as we could" from the rear intake tract of the screw
rotors.

CNC machines producing a precise product with a professional appearance.
Dimensions of the can are
2 1/2-inch in diameter by 5 3/4-inch tall, therefore making installations in
tight spaces more convenient.
Installation takes on average 15 to 20 minutes with minimal mechanical knowledge
and common household
tools. Includes mounting bracket, 3/8 fittings, hose, hardware and accessories.
We have these available in
universal kit or
