EVIL ENERGY 300ml Baffled Oil Catch Can — Aluminum Breather Tank with Removable Baffle & 5ft NBR Hose

EVIL ENERGY's 300ml baffled oil catch can is a universal aluminum breather tank that captures crankcase oil and moisture before they reach the intake, and it ships with a 5ft 3/8" NBR hose and M16*1.5 fittings.

This compact, serviceable catch can is designed for universal fitment on many gasoline and performance engines. The 300ml aluminum reservoir uses an internal removable baffle and can accept steel wool to enhance oil and vapor separation, while the included nitrile (NBR) hose resists heat and abrasion. Install options include venting with a breather cap for pre-PCV setups or inline placement between PCV hoses for sealed configurations; selection depends on your engine's crank ventilation scheme.

How does this catch can reduce intake contamination?

The baffled chamber slows and redirects blow-by gases so oil droplets and water condense and collect in the tank rather than traveling into the intake. A removable baffle and the option to add steel wool improve surface area and trapping efficiency without restricting flow.

• 300ml aluminum reservoir for compact collection capacity
• Removable internal baffle to break vapor and capture oil
• Optional steel wool media increases separation surface area
• Helps limit carbon and varnish buildup on valves and intake passages

What hardware and hose specifications are included in the kit?

This kit contains a 5ft (1.5 m) nitrile rubber hose rated for heat and wear, sized 3/8" inner diameter and 5/8" outer diameter for typical PCV and breather lines. The catch can ports have M16*1.5 threads for a secure, leak-resistant connection to the fittings supplied.

• Hose: NBR material, 5ft length, 3/8" ID, 5/8" OD
• Fittings: M16*1.5 threaded inlet/outlet ports
• Aluminum body: lightweight, corrosion-resistant construction
• Mounting provisions: universal bracket for flexible placement

Can I use this catch can with my PCV or breather system?

Yes. For engines without an active PCV valve, fit the catch can with the breather cap so it vents to atmosphere while trapping contaminants. For engines with a closed PCV loop, place the can inline between PCV hoses to collect oil and preserve the sealed ventilation path.

• Pre-PCV engines: use with breather cap installed
• PCV-equipped engines: install inline between PCV hoses without breather cap
• Verify hose diameter and available space before installation
• Professional installation recommended for optimal routing and sealing

How should I maintain the EVIL ENERGY catch can to avoid issues in cold weather?

Condensed moisture can accumulate in the can, and under freezing conditions it may solidify and obstruct flow. Empty and inspect the tank regularly—weekly in cold climates—and temporarily reinstall the original PCV hose if severe freezing is expected.

• Empty collected oil and moisture frequently in low-temperature environments
• Inspect hoses, clamps, and fittings for wear or leaks
• Remove and clean baffle and interior if flow decreases
• Reinstall factory PCV hose in extreme cold to prevent blockages

Who is this for? EVIL ENERGY's 300ml baffled oil catch can is aimed at enthusiasts and mechanics who want a compact, serviceable solution to reduce oil and moisture entering the intake. It suits turbocharged and naturally aspirated engines where space is limited, drivers wanting to reduce intake-valve deposits, and anyone seeking a durable universal kit with clear hose and thread specifications. Measure your existing hose inner diameter, confirm M16*1.5 fitting compatibility, and ensure you have mounting room before purchase. For best results, pair the kit with professional routing and routine inspections.
