This comment is to help the algorithm! Mike is like that neighbor you help out once cause he’s always working alone then you end up spending hours with him cause you find out he’s a great guy and has an immense wealth of knowledge! Glad y’all decide to make these vids
Nobody asked for you, but we could not be more happy you exist. You are currently saving me thousands 😂 THANK YOU
I could listen Mike explain anything and it would be simultaneously soothing and entertaining
I like Mike he's got a good delivery and really goes into the details and gives real world application experience for the products.
He's #1 in the world. What else would you expect?
I've always heard an AOS was important in turbocharging. I know that it is pretty self-explanatory. Its obviously a device that separates air from oil but the detailed breakdown of this part, how it actually works and the explanation of "blow-by" were on point man! Thanks for all the insight and hard work you guys put into you videos....Very informative...I like the way you make simplicity out of complexity...
Even better, and the next step up for doing the job, is a vacuum pump on the engine's crankcase, the only one's I've ever been around are mechanically driven, either as original engineering or as a performance upgrade, heavily boosted engine's practically require them, I'm talking aircraft racing engine's that make 100 psi of boost, an engine like that will load up the crankcase with so much oil mist it'll drag big power off anything that has to rotate through it.
There's even some normally aspirated engine's that'll benefit from a vacuum pump, Harley's have always had bottom end breathing problems when built for high revving performance, for years every race team in Grand National racing has used mechanically driven vacuum pumps on the bottom ends of the Harley XR750 racing engine's.
Excellent and thorough review of this piece of gear!!! Super technical, but you laid it out in layman's terms for even the novice enthusiasts to comprehend. I love my IAG SS AOS!!!
I’m very grateful to you guys for taking the time to make these videos! I love to learn as much as possible about this hobby.
Another great video! The heated feature is interesting. I imagine that it really helps flash off more water and fuel vapor that way, not to mention speeding up oil return. Thanks for bringing us a in depth look!
Amazing. I love the explanation Mike gives and how to the point he is. Thank you so much for sharing.
So awesome Ive always wondered what a catch can was for and now I want an oil separator for my project thanks for the explanation!
love this man. car guy through and through. Always a smile in his face when he talks about cars.
The absolute giddiness and joy you express talking about this just makes me smile. Excellent and informative video 👍
You guys really know your stuff! I like that you guys actually explain your reasons for part choice rather than just listing them off
Mike Kojima is such a boss. If i wasn't dirt poor I'd have them work on my shit until then I'll keep rolling around on cold concrete
I wish you were my automotive teacher. So easy to listen to and pay attention
Why do I just love this guy. Brilliant, nice, friendly feels. Its not normal, but in a good way.
I have used a variety of catch cans mostly on SC and Turbo LS' cars. I can see why this is a step above thanks to your excellent description - something I need to try out on the next build - thanks
You guys kick ass , I couldn't be happier with the content. Thank you !
I've learned so much from your great vids. Love Mike's communication style, always end up with a smile on my face at some point during the vids.
You explained that so perfectly! Thank you for the information and in depth explanation of how this gem works. Just placed my order for my 2023 WRX!
Really like the way you explain things. Your ease and comfort on the subject matter illustrates your deep knowledge.
We loving us some MotoIQ. Thank you!
Mike can make anything sound super interesting!
I love this guy. He always looks so happy explaining. Very knowledgeable too 👍🏼
I love him too!!
I love this guy's whole demeanor and manner of speaking. Feels like I'm sitting down with a knowledgeable friend or colleague.
just picked up my first subie and it had developed alot of issues right off the bat, this channel has helped me understand quit a bit about these cars and just stuff in general. great channel, thx for putting it on
Appreciate you telling the difference between this and a catch can.
I have a poster of Mike in my room so I remember to smile every day
You have the best way explaining anything, i admire that sir.
I love how happy he is.. really loves what he does
That’s why the IAG separator is so good!! They do such a good job of getting rid of the milkshake!
Love the channel 🤘🏻
Great video, his passion for cars really shines through in this video
Such wholesome and informative content! Keep up the awesome work
Amazing explanation of the AOS, especially each component
Fantastic break-down of the operation of this unit, very informative!
Wow. Proof no one ever stops being a student. I have a few projects that will have your A/O separator incorporated into their systems. Keep educating us!
A great explanation of the features of this oil separator. Im running a non-turbo E25 in my 2009 subi forester & was surprised at just how much oil was collecting in the air box, this explanation really clarifies the root causes of some of my issues. Thank you. pity you arent in Australia.
im so glad i found this channel
Great video! I always learn something new, and you seem like a really nice guy!
I could listen to Mike all day! It’s like a mini degree just from his knowledge transfer
Great job Mike! Excellent explanation of how an air oil separator works!
Thank you for watching!
Thanks Mike. Excellent video
Another excellent explanation- thanks Mike!
Always been curious about how they work. Thanks for the video!
I have to install one of these for a buddy of mine tomorrow and had no idea what I was doing or how this thing worked. Now that Ive watched your video and explanation I understand why different ports are in specific places and I think this video will help me a lot with the install. Thank you for this great video
Update, the bolt securing his intercooler to the turbo flange snapped😃
Love you guys always furthering my education and alway sending to friends to further speed the knowledge 💪🏼
this AOS is the first mod i put on my wrx. best thing i did! especially helps with keeping down valve carbon buildup on the FA20DIT
I really love your videos, your explanations are great and concise. Keep it up!
Thank you very much!
Rebuilding my shop rebuilt ls motor myself after very low mileage, who knows......
But going forged pistons etc now to turbo in two years or so. This made total sense and will be a good add to my build.
Im installing one on my vb soon. Thank you for the insight. Very informative 😁
You’re a good teacher. 7;39 was my favorite part.
I didn't know differences between regular oil catch can and this particular product! Good to know of it! Thanks!
Man, just found this and subscribed and been watching video after video! Good info!!! Building an HR 350z and 98' Z28 and this stuff it's really helpful with future decisions. Like not installing my long tubes, since I'm going to put turbos on.
Keep up the good work!
Thank you for your time.
Love learning from you!
Best master Sensei ever 🙏 I’m starting my learning progress in Subaru you help a lot thank you
A+ i feel so educated listening to him explain things.
Great review of the separator. I look forward to adapting one to my track Z and get away from the open, vented catch can.
I got my IAG comp series AOS, actually getting it installed tomorrow!
Thanks for the video. I liked seeing it apart. I have one but never dismantled it. Great explanation!
Thanks for the detailed explanation
Very educational, very clarifying !!
Thanks !!!
Awesome job Mike ! Very detailed and explained every aspect of the canister will continue to check out more of your videos. Thank you so much. Dave
Thanks 👍
Incredible stuff right here
Love it. Definitely need this on my Subaru
Awesome video thank you guys again!!!
Just installed mine yesterday everyone keeps asking me what it does and I hear if u can’t explain it to someone else you don’t know enough about it…thank you sir
amazing videos guys
Great stuff King Mike
This fella has a grin like its is 1st time in front of the camera. Every video lol. Perhaps he's a happy guy.. very knowledgeable. 👍👍👍👍
Awesome informative video
Looks like a really great piece
great video love the detailed information
Excellent Mike......
Really cool, nice overview.
Thanks Mike!
great video, I was about to ask About the E-85 Mixture that i wouldn't want back in my Engine but you then answered it my Question.
Great video Mike! I've been meaning to get an AOS on my WRX. On a side note, I've been working with Simon K. at HMA. Was hoping if we could come tour your place but I'm not sure if he can fit that into his schedule as he's a super busy guy. Anyways, thanks again for the great content. Perhaps you guys could cover how to build an FA motor that won't blow up sometime?!
Nice thanks for showing the inside and detailed explanation. Now i have an idea how to make one from some exhaust pipe.
Great video Mike
This dude is always geekin
Thanks man!
great video. I wanna add this to my Thupra.
Thanks Mike, you did an awesome job on this video 🔥
Glad you liked it!
Great video! We wanna see one in the s2k!
Love this channel
The LEGEND, The GOAT, Mike Kojima
Love the knowledge
I want one. Great information and thanks for it!
thing cost almost $500 thats nuts!
Love how he smiles the whole time
Excellent explanation.
Cheers😊
Mike is the best!
This info was very useful 👍 👌
Great idea!
I have Tracey Lewis's - Air Oil Seperator on my 6th gen camaro. It is SOOOOOOOOOO good, I would say even normal Direct Injection cars even not meant for performance should have something similar installed. These GDI engines can break down very easy due to blow by build up. People just dont know how helpful these things are.
I appreciate the videos and information
From today, this is going to any engine/car I'll ever build, thanks ✌️
Love this guy very informative. Thank you
Great video! Thanks guys!
Thanks for watching!
This is so informative!!!
