Air oil separator
Hi guys, quick question, I know catch can are popular for the camaros, I also have a wrx and they more commonly use aos or air oil separators. You never have to drain them, so my question is, does anyone make an aos for our cars? I can't seem to find any and s9me advertise as being an aos, but then says catch can in the same title like they're the same thing.

They already come with a factory AOS on one side:

Well that is interesting, learn something new every day. So why would there be some oil in the supercharger? Not efficient enough, maybe? I get the current catch cans, but is there a more effective air oil separator, where it would prevent any blow by? Catch cans are cool and all, but I would like a set and forget type of deal.

The factory AOS is on the “clean” side between the intake tube and the valve covers. There isn’t anything from the factory on the “dirty” side between the crankcase and the intake manifold or supercharger. That is where an external catch can is typically installed.
