This item has been discontinued by the manufacturer. We reccomend looking at the IAG Street Series as an alternative.

The IAG Performance Competition Series billet aluminum Air / Oil separator (AOS) vents crankcase vapors to the atmosphere. The design is based on years of service in racing and high horsepower Subaru's. The AOS's approximate 1-liter capacity, fully heated housing, superior breathing, and unique patent-pending baffle design set it apart from the rest. 

IAG V3 Competition Series AOS

Competition Series AOS is “Competition Only” components for installation exclusively on “Competition” vehicles or “Racing” vehicles not subject to pollution control. IAG recommends the Competition Series AOS for Competition vehicles with greater than 600 WHP output.


The IAG Performance V3 Competition Series Air / Oil separator (AOS) is an excellent investment to keep your Subaru Competition Vehicle running well. The Competition Series AOS keeps oil out of the intake system of your engine by venting crankcase vapors to the atmosphere. The Competition Series AOS design is based on years of extensive testing on racing and high horsepower Subaru. The large, 1-liter, cast aluminum swirl pot canister collects the oil from the PCV system and allows it to drain away before the PCV gases are vented to the atmosphere, preventing all oil from reentering the intake tract. The AOS's fully-heated cast aluminum housing, superior venting, and unique, patent-pending, baffle design sets it apart from the rest. The Competition Series AOS is best suited for Drag Racing, Road Racing, and high horsepower Competition applications looking for superior crankcase ventilation. The Competition Series AOS may require additional tuning calibration. Please consult a tuner for more information.

Keeping Oil Out

Keeping oil out of the engine intake tract is extremely important towards preventing premature mechanical failure and maintaining performance. Oil in the intake tract of the engine has several detrimental effects. First, the oil coats the internal portions of the intake, intercooler, and piping. This oil may cause premature failure of rubber or silicone hoses, which leads to failed connections.


Once the oil reaches the intake tract it will directly enter the intake manifold and then the combustion chamber of the engine. Oil inside of the combustion chamber can cause detonation and preignition, high emissions, smoke, loss of power, decreased gas mileage, and even catastrophic engine failure leading to expensive repair bills.

Venting

The Competition Series vents the PCV gases to the atmosphere via a large 1” diameter vent hose. All oil in the CCV systems is prevented from entering the intake tract. IAG’s V3 AOS also eliminates the OEM PCV valve which is known to fail in high horsepower applications.

Version 2 vs Version 3 IAG AOS

The most popular Subaru AOS for Competition use is now even better! The IAG AOS body is completely redesigned using cast aluminum and features an integrated coolant passage for better heat retention. Additionally, the V3 AOS heating system is upgraded by relocating the coolant lines to the bottom of the body using new swivel fittings, heat sleeving, and an integrated coolant bleeder. These heating system upgrades will allow for a cleaner installation and less condensation buildup in colder climates. The new compact body has the same 1-liter capacity as V2, but features a sleeker design and adds removable ORB fittings for greater versatility.

AOS TOP

  • True 360° Rotating Breather Port
  • Large Breather Port For Maximum Ventilation
  • Greater Pressure Stream Oil Separation

Notice the large breathing port? At first glance you might think this is excessive, however, our reasoning is grounded in simple physics. As air and particles of oil enter into the AOS, the largest particles of oil will collect on the inner surface of the can and drain to the bottom, but the smallest particles will remain suspended in the pressurized stream.

As the air makes its way through the multi-stage baffle system, gravity pulls oil from the air. By increasing the diameter of the breather opening on the top of the AOS, we have drastically decreased the exit velocity of the crankcase vent (CCV) stream. The slower velocity leads to greater oil separation from the pressure stream. A total of 20 mounting holes enables the breathing port a full 360° of rotation. On the top, a thick Viton o-ring seals the can. Every o-ring in our AOS is formed from Viton which offers superior temperature and chemical resistance.

AOS BODY

  • Compact Cast Aluminum Design
  • Approximate 1 Liter Holding Capacity
  • Integrated ORB Ports
  • Aluminum Body is powder-coated in Red or Black Wrinkle Finish
  • The side of the AOS features 3 -8 ORB removable billet hose barbs

The Subaru EJ engine has 3 ports that vent crank pressure: one on each cylinder head, and another on the top of the block. Each engine vent port receives its own connection to the AOS. By giving each engine port its own entrance to the AOS IAG has allowed for more effective and faster excavation of crankcase pressure. Additionally, this reduces overall system pressure. The AOS has an approximate 1 liter of holding capacity. The larger the AOS, the more power you can safely make without having to worry about the AOS overfilling.
