EVIL ENERGY Oil Catch Can 300ML Baffled Oil Can - Cleaner Intake

In this review of the EVIL ENERGY Oil Catch Can 300ML, the bottom line is simple: this is a practical, well-built universal catch can for car owners who want to reduce intake carbon buildup and keep valve and piston areas cleaner. It is best for DIY mechanics and owners of older or modified engines who need a compact solution with a baffled design. The catch can's removable baffle and included steel balls help separate oil and moisture effectively, and the kit's durable NBR hose and clear mounting options make installation straightforward for many vehicles.

Key Features

• Baffled Design: The removable baffle and added steel balls trap oil and moisture to reduce carbon buildup and help preserve intake and valve cleanliness.
• 300ML Capacity: A compact reservoir that fits many engine bays while providing enough volume for routine catch and drainage before service intervals.
• Universal Fit: The can is compatible with most vehicles when there is adequate installation space, offering a broadly useful retrofit option.
• Durable NBR Hose Kit: The supplied 5ft NBR hose resists wear and heat and uses a 3/8' ID to connect securely between PCV and intake points.
• PCV System Flexibility: Can be installed with the breather filter for vented systems or in-line without the filter for sealed PCV setups.
• Service Support: The manufacturer offers returns or exchanges for quality issues and responsive customer service for installation help.

Who It's For

The EVIL ENERGY 300ML catch can is aimed at vehicle owners who want an affordable, compact oil separation solution to reduce intake contamination and extend engine life, especially on older cars, daily drivers prone to blow-by, or lightly modified engines. It is also a good choice for DIY enthusiasts who prefer a kit with hose and fittings included for straightforward installation.

Owners of very small engine bays where space is extremely tight, or those who need a larger capacity for heavy-duty or frequent hard-driving use, should look elsewhere for a larger tank or a vehicle-specific kit. Also note extra care in freezing climates where moisture can accumulate and require weekly cleaning or winter reversion to the factory PCV hose.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Solid build quality and appearance that several customers described as looking near OEM.
• Effective baffled separation that helps reduce carbon deposits when maintained properly.
• Complete hose kit with durable NBR hose and M161.5 threaded ports for a secure fit.
• Good value for money with dependable customer support for returns or exchanges.

Cons

• 300ml capacity is compact and may require more frequent draining for high blow-by engines.
• In very cold climates the increased moisture can risk freezing unless cleaned weekly or removed in winter.

Is the included hose heat resistant?
The supplied NBR hose is selected for good wear and heat resistance suitable for typical engine bay conditions.
