The Verus Engineering Air Oil Separator keeps oil out of the ND Miata's intake system. Oil vapor in the intake charge reduces effective octane, which can lead to detonation, power loss, and carbon build-up on the intake valves. The AOS uses four 5-micron coalescent filters — one on each inlet and outlet — combined with internal baffling and stainless mesh for thorough separation of oil from crankcase air.
Each unit ships fully assembled and pressure tested, with an easy-to-use drain valve. An optional coolant kit is available for demanding driving environments, and the AOS is offered in three anodized colors.
Notes: installation requires removal of the sound tube, if equipped. Models without a sound tube require slightly different hose routing. Right-hand drive cars require slight modification of the mounting bracket for A/C line clearance. Anodized finishes can fade over time due to engine bay heat.
