That's the one I am looking at as well.I researched them for my S550 and ended up buying UPR.
I'm sure they're all fine choices, but I went with UPR and will buy one for my S650 as well. Made in the U.S., price is right.
If catch cans really make a difference, I canât see why Ford doesnât put them on at the factoryI'm wanting a dirty side PCV oil catch can. Is there any appreciable performance differences between the aftermarket billet ones? I've looked at Mishimoto, J&L and UPR. Any reason to go with one over another?
Thanks.
Might not be legal to sell them pre-installed in all locations. Didn't the dark horse come with one stored in the boot from factory for a while along with a few other accessories that were fitted at the dealer.If catch cans really make a difference, I canât see why Ford doesnât put them on at the factory
"Ease of use". I went with the UPR for several reasons. However, the "Ease of use" issues ain't one of them. To empty it I'll have to take it apart (both hoses & the attachment knob). It cannot be unscrewed in place.Some items to consider: ease of use (how is it emptied) and ease of utilization (sight window)
State laws in CA forbid them. So you have to get one thats easy to instal and remove before the smog inspectionIf catch cans really make a difference, I canât see why Ford doesnât put them on at the factory
Because they require regular service or it will screw up the pollution equipment (and engine). Think of how bad the average person is about taking care of their car and its easy to see why manufacturers use the easy method of routing things into the intake to be burned instead.If catch cans really make a difference, I canât see why Ford doesnât put them on at the factory
Why not just route it to the catalytic.Because they require regular service or it will screw up the pollution equipment (and engine).

Likely that the oil vapors would plug up the cats, causing more issues.Why not just route it to the catalytic.
The cat is much hotter than the combustion chamber.Likely that the oil vapors would plug up the cats, causing more issues.
If that theory worked then no cat would plug up. Thereâs a difference between hitting a hot object and being exposed to a combustion. Also could possibly affect the O2 sensor readings.The cat is much hotter than the combustion chamber.
also there are some versions of âcatch cansâ that are more separators than cans and actually âdrainâ back into the oil pan / system.
