Airtec Motorsport oil catch can upgrade for the Ford Fiesta ST180, developed as an essential preventive upgrade for direct-injection EcoBoost engines for track use and sporty street use.
In direct injection engines, oil and vapor residues can enter the intake tract via the original crankcase ventilation system. Over time, this causes carbon construction on the intake channels and valves, resulting in reduced airflow, performance, and efficiency.
The Airtec catch can captures these contaminants before they reach the intake system. As a result, the engine remains cleaner and expensive cleaning treatments are prevented in the long run.
The kit has been specifically developed for the Fiesta ST180 and utilizes the available space in the engine bay for a neat OEM+ integration. Thanks to the billet milled mounting bracket With a satin black powder coating, the catch can is mounted securely and tightly.
The catch can itself has a internal baffle and a oil dipstick and can be easily removed for maintenance. The set comes complete with two Pro Hoses silicone hoses, all mounting materials and clear assembly instructions.
