How does it work?
During the process of venting crankcase pressure back through your intake track, large amounts of oil, in the form of vapors, intake tube, intake manifold runners and even dilute your gas, lowering its octane level. This happens on all engines and is even worse with forced inducted vehicles (supercharged and turbocharged) as crankcase pressures are increased. To combat this, JLT has developed an oil separator of their own design. Milled from solid billet aluminum this is a rock-solid piece. It has a knurled tank base for easy removal to drain the spent oil and an O-ring seal to prevent any leaks.
Filtering consists of a fine mesh stainless steel screen that traps fine oil vapors and releases them once heavy enough to fall. They then pass through a 1/2" thick 1/16th" aluminum honeycomb filter where they grow every larger and then fall into the bottom. By the time the oil gets through the filter it's too heavy to be passed on into the intake. The tank holds 3 oz of fluid, while that may not sound like a lot, you shouldn’t see that much oil in your PCV system. Drain it every 2000-3000 miles and you will never come close to filling it.
Everything started with the self-belief and keenness for automobiles of Jay Tucker, the JLT Performance® owner, on one side of the scale, and the market failure to offer a superior-quality air intake and provide decent service, on the other side of the scale. Today, JLT Performance Inc. is recognized by major tuning companies like SCT, Diablosport, Hypertech, and Super Chips for powering many record-setting cars. The company falls over itself to make sure its products perform and look like nothing else on the market. Its vast selection encompasses premium-grade air intakes, oil separators, exterior styling products, underhood and interior dress up parts, and more. Passionate about their products, JLT members drive, race, test, and use everything they put in the hands of their customers to ensure your ultimate satisfaction.
