BSH is pleased to announce the addition of the Vent to Atmosphere Race PCV System to its line up of PCV products for your 2.0T FSI. Manufactured in house at our Arizona based facility, the Race PCV System fixes all the major problems associated with the prone to failure PCV system and adds a true catch can to capture all oil vapors that would otherwise make their way back into the engine.
Designed into the system is an additional source of crank case ventilation to ensure the best possible performance on higher horsepower cars. The adapters in this kit do not exist anywhere else in the world and are exclusive to BSH and its line of performance products. In order to ensure proper fitment in the engine bay BSH designed a custom air filter to allow proper clearance of the hood shock while providing complete ventilation. This package is designed to work for all stock turbo or big turbo 2.0T FSI's.
This kit comes complete with every hose, bracket, nut, and bolt needed to install!
The purpose of a catch can system is to collect/vent the blowby vapors inherent as part of the combustion process. The factory setup sucks these oily vapors directly back into the engine exposing them to everything in their path.
Removal of these vapors is especially important on direct injection engines. Port injection engines have detergent enhanced fuel passing over the intake ports constantly cleaning off the intake valves. Direct Injection does not allow for this as the injectors spray right into the combustion chamber. Over time these oils harden and cake to the intake valves causing drastically reduced head flow, cold start misfires, greatly increased knock retard and of course a nice expensive bill to clean it all out.
In the short term getting these vapors out of the combustion path reduces knock retard by not allowing oil vapor to mix with the air fuel mixture. In addition the more free flowing lines allow the engine to rev easily giving a more responsive feel to the engine as a whole.
Take a peak at the see more images gallery located at the top of the page for images of both the buildup and the cause of it. Take a look at that and decide if that's something you want in your engine.
NOTE: Venting the PCV system may not be legal in your state. This part is intended for off road/racing use only.
To avoid allowing the scent of PCV gasses from entering the cabin you will want to use the recirc feature on your air conditioning.
