Learn what an air oil separator is as I unbox this IAG Street Series Air Oil Separator in preparation for my installation in my 2020 STI. I go over the theory of how it works, what all the hoses do, how it compares to a catch can, and why it might be necessary in your car.
For a COMPLETE step-by-step installation of this AOS check out my tutorial here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rLx2paWdtJ6qqIU.html

For all those asking, I can confirm the IAG AOS Street did not void my warranty. The dealership listed my car as completely stock after inspection and performed warranty work for free. I have the AOS, Cobb sf, catback, and AP.

I work for a dealership. They don’t care what you do to your car. As long as it’s not the reason why your car is having problem, they should still perform service, if not then don’t go to that dealer

I have a 2006 Porsche 997 and currently working on changing mine... I have oil in a couple of my hoses... can you explain the tubes workings on mine please. I am unsure if oil should have been in them in the first place. Help needed if u can thanks.

Hey Boost & Shutter - could you updated the amazon link for an IAG AOS for the 2020 STI? When looking at the product on IAGs website, it doesn't explicitly state the 2020 STI is supported. Just want to make sure to get the correct one. Thanks!

I had the comp version but converted to the street since I run e50 minimum...Now I'm wondering if the street version is actually doing anything since those gases are still in my engine..I've heard of a few people running 23+psi having the street AOS clog up their EBCS lines...I insulated the return hose with foil tape and insulated mesh wrap because I've heard horror stories about condensation freezing inside the hose causing BOOM

@CaseAgainstFaith1 3 жыл бұрын

I don't have a Subby. I'm going to use one on my Mazdaspeed. Just curious, the port that you are using for the oil dump out of the AOS, what is it normally for as you don't normally have an AOS.

@TheMAlexM 3 жыл бұрын

Do you have to drain them? Every oil change street or comp,?

@Mikey6048 3 жыл бұрын

Nobody can explain to me why, the top throttle body line has a one way valve in it. If we are deleting the PCV system. Why have another PCV? Is it because of running boost to maintain internal AOS pressures? Also how does the block breather not vent into the drain side of the Y splitter? I assume it's because of vacuum effect at the AOS inputs being close to one another and it pulls ventilation gases to the path of least resistance? And the drain should have pressure pushing out?

My intake is nicely lubed up with oil. My valves are BLACK, and the VW shops locally don't recommend catch cans... I guess they support planned obsolescence, DIY or DIE. I'm trying to adapt this product into my VW.

@moisesr7840 Жыл бұрын

So the port in the middle of the block is to feed gasses into the canister and at the same time (with the Y fitting) dump it into that same port? Why?!
