What we shake our head at is the science involved in this and people don't attack a vendor selling $450 headers VS $2400 set, or a made in China tire VS a speed rated performance tire, yet here all lump each device into "It's just a catchcan".


99% of cans no matter the price are nothing but a small container that at best may trap 15% of what enters it (you know, the stuff you don't want ingested?) allowing the majority to still pass through and be ingested as if no device was installed (all containers will trap some) and then compare it to a true air/oil separating crankcase evacuation system, that not only traps 95% of what enters it not allowing hardly any to be ingested, but one that has enough unaffiliated 3rd party independent testing that validates and verifies what it does. From keeping your engine oil cleaner far longer reducing wear, to reducing most knock retard caused by this ingestion.


Not here to fight but to educate and share actual technical data. If you do attack us as the few that always do, we will ask Admin to deal with it. We have been a loyal supporting vendor here since near the beginning and without supporting vendors to pay the expenses of running a site like this, there will be none.


So, over 13,000 miles running our system by this independent tech that wanted to verify the claims we make of how flushing and removing the contaminants that overwhelm motor oil so it cannot protect properly to extending oil life. Again, we don't share ANY of our own tests. Just the independent techs that challenge a claim. So there can be no bias as we challenge any of you with any other system design to head to head testing.


Read the Lab Techs comments.



So comparing a $15 generic little container to a Patented proven (the 2 year study conducted by one of the Worlds most respected Lubrication labs alone....THEY funded 100%. THEY contacted us, and all we did was provide the systems. THEY purchased a fleet of different GDI powered vehicles.


So, investing $40-50-60k on an awesome vehicle and then using less expensive critical protection parts makes no sense to us, but feel free to choose what you personally want. We don't attack you for this, we just shake our heads. NO other company not only is made up almost entirely of Engineers like we are, but an Automotive Engineer with PCV systems and proper crankcase evacuation is their specialty. Not a single other company making/selling "catchcans" provides any science, and data, and proof. And we challenge ANYONE that thinks they have a device that even comes close to have a public dedicated thread on here conducting the testing.


Cheers!!
