APR Catch Can for VW MK6 Golf / GTI - 1.8T/2.0T EA888 Gen 1
The APR Oil Catch Can System traps excessive crankcase oil vapors and gunk from entering the engine. The system eliminates a possible performance robbing boost leak, while reducing carbon buildup on intake valves, octane lowering oil vapors and oil pooling within the intake tract. It’s a simple modification to install, drains in seconds with the flick of a knob, and is recommended at all stages of performance.
Fonctionnalités
- Augmente les performances
Augmente les performances en éliminant une fuite de suralimentation courante, et en réduisant les vapeurs d'huile qui abaissent l'indice d'octane et l'accumulation de carbone qui restreint le flux d'air. - Élimine une fuite de suralimentation
En contournant le point de connexion du collecteur PCV, on élimine un point de défaillance possible. - Attrape l'huile et les saletés
L'huile et les dépôts se rassemblent dans la boîte, pas dans les tuyaux de l'intercooler. - Facile à vider
Un simple bouton permet au système de se vider en quelques secondes sans aucun outil. - Facile à installer
S'installe en quelques minutes. Les tuyaux s'emboîtent facilement sans outils grâce aux raccords OEM Norma. - Facile à entretenir
L'entretien annuel est un jeu d'enfant grâce à la conception en deux pièces en billette. - Tuyaux de haute qualité
Résister à la dégradation de l'huile, aux plis, à l'abrasion et au blocage dû au gel, avec un aspect OEM. - Canette, plaque et support de haute qualité
Strong, clean and attractive billet-aluminum and stainless steel parts look right at home in the engine bay.
The Problems
An engine produces extreme pressures within its cylinders during operation and some ultimately slips by the piston rings and pressurizes the engine’s crankcase. This is exacerbated when increasing horsepower and driving harder. To relieve the pressure, the engine uses a failure prone PCV system that dumps the pressure, along with oil vapors, back into the intake tract to be consumed by the engine. Unfortunately, this results in the following performance robbing scenarios:
- Oil vapors mix with the air/fuel mixture, which reduces octane and hurts performance.
- Carbon builds up on the back of intake valves, which reduces airflow and hurts performance.
- Messy oil pools in the intake tract and coats the intercooler, leading to hose degradation, and reduced IC effectiveness.
- The factory PCV system can fail, creating a massive boost leak that directly pressurizes the crankcase.
The Solution
The APR Oil Catch Can System traps excessive crankcase oil vapors and gunk from entering the engine while the engine is under load. The system routes crankcase gasses through the APR catch can, which filters oil vapors through a track-proven four-staged baffling system. The vapors pool in the bottom of the can, while the rest of the pressure is diverted back to the intake tract where it’s burned off by the engine.
The result is simple:
- A cleaner engine
- Better performance
- Elimination of a possible failure point
System Overview
REQUIREMENT NOTES: The manifold PCV port must be blocked off to use this product. This can be accomplished with the APR boost tap. Also, the system is only designed for use without the factory engine cover installed. The rear blockoff is included. This system requires removal of the factory "noise pipe" found on some models.
