Put them in the first post too.

Justin,

I've always heard on all of the Subaru forums I frequent that you need 2 seperate AOS/catch cans. How did you get around that?

I believe what they are saying is you need two catch cans, one to "catch" the heads and one to "catch" the crankcase.

Our AOS does both in one.

Justin

They're saying that the cans have to be seperate or bad juju. I'm just wondering if you've done something different with yours that makes this irrelevant?

yeah we are using the other hose fitting on the inlet hose for the crankcase and heads so we are able to cap off the hose fitting on the inlet that is close to the turbo. you only need to run our AOS to gain the benefits they are speaking of.

I thought of another question. How do you check your oil?

This goes on the filler cap not dip stick. You just have to use slightly longer/different routed hoses. :)

I think Joel was pointing out that in the installed pic above, the hoses seem to be blocking one from removing the dip stick. I'm sure you just have to remove the AOS before you check the oil.

Or use longer hoses and rotate it so they clear the dipstick.

I would need to see an installed pic. I wouldn't want to run more hose the necessary and or create a low spot. It would be a pain in the butt if the unit needed to be unscrewed and moved each time I wanted to check my oil.

Looking again, it looks like they could just rotate it 45 degrees clockwise with the current routing.

this is exactly correct. it was probably not the greatest picture to take for you guys of it installed because that is our track car and it doesnt have an a/c compressor so mine faces more left than the normal setup. most setups will have the AOS rotated clockwise more so it will not be covering the dip stick.

Justin

If it was rotated clockwise more then your company name would be upside-down.

the AOS shouldnt be pointing straight up so it should still be legible :)

:lol:

Just flip the text over on your next batch... and tell people to install it straight up. Then you can run the breather lines up along the intake manifold over the back of the alternator rather than across the front of it. Should make for a cleaner install. In fact, I'd install it that way even if the text is upsidedown.

haha, yeah that is the plan. we had to place an emergency production run for another 100 to try and keep up with demand, we will change it on this batch. not a big deal.

oh yeah it can be installed pretty much any direction you want, that is one of the nice things about it...very flexible configurations.

I think you need to send one up here to SECCS so we can help you work the bugs out. It should also be tested at elevation. ;)

I know this is for the nasioc group buy, but since it is to help out the Haiti victims I wanted to cross post it.


SPECIAL NOTE: GROUP BUY WILL BE CAPPED AT 200 - Spot 200 will go to Haiti Relief

This is how we are going to handle the last spot.....

Spot #200 will be a auction style spot, 100% of the final sale price will go to the American Red Cross Haiti Relief Fund.

Thank you very much for posting it over here!

I would never have seen it there. Can I have some large stickers to go on Magnets for races?

And any chance I can get some Gaskets added to the order?

I am #186. You better hurry up if you want in at $199!!!!!

here is a picture that one of our customers sent us(i added the text). he used all clear lines because he wanted to keep an eye on it to make sure it was working as we claimed.

a large part as to why it is so efficient at separating the oil out of the air is because of our internal core design. we spent over a year refining the core design. this is why we are able to have a very compact system, yet still is a very effective separator.

I'll be interested to hear if oil consumption is affected by running these.

I would think it would reduce it since it is not routed into the intake.

I have mine, and it is pretty cool. Now if I only had an engine to attach it to. :)

I have this installed on my car. I love it. works awesome. I don't notice any oil consumption with it.

Yeah it should greatly reduce oil compsumption. We have many customers that are stating they have noticed much lower comsumption after they installed the AOS.
