Any interest in Air/ Oil Separator?

[Brandon@Importshark]

Just wondering if there is any interest in having an AOS made for the turbo engine? For those who don't know what this is; It's very similar to a catch can but a much better design.

I'll let the people from GrimmSpeed explain: (pulled off www.grimmspeed.com for the 2002 Subaru WRX)
P.S. This is the company I'm trying to show that there's enough interest for this to be produced.



An Air/Oil Separator has one job, remove the oil from the engine ventilation system so the oil does not get sent through the intake system.

The GrimmSpeed™ Subaru Air/Oil Separator has a unique patent pending design that allows you to maintain your PCV Valve while separating the oil out of the crankcase and head ventilation air! Our AOS will allow your engine to run more efficiently due to the separation of oil from the intake system. When there is oil in your system, the result is 1) reduced fuel octane 2) higher chance of engine knock(detonation) 3) worse emissions 4) higher oil consumption. Our Subaru Air/Oil Separator will solve all of these problems.

In typical GrimmSpeed™ fashion, we have made a very compact unit that packs a powerful punch(and looks good while doing it)! No more having to check/empty your catch can and refilling your oil. The GrimmSpeed™ AOS coalesces oil without using a mesh media. Mesh medias can cause contaminates to collect and build up resulting in possible sludge. Our AOS is self maintained so you can just sit back, stop worrying, and enjoy driving your car!

Q: How big is the unit compared to the oem oil cap? I'm running a FMIC and need to make sure it will fit
A: We created it so it will work perfectly with a FMIC as well. The body of our AOS as the same diameter as the oem oil cap.

So post on up!

Price?

Price?

Ones for the Subaru go for $300, but the price really would be up to GrimmSpeed. Hopefully they'd be able to lower the price point a bit, but I can't promise that.

So it replaces the oil cap? Can you post a diagram of the anticipated plumbing in relation to our engines?

Yes it replaces the oil cap. This is not made yet for this car, I don't think they have any diagrams. Here's the install guide for the Subaru, should give you an idea: https://www.grimmspeed.com/install_guides/subaru_aos.pdf
