Just posting up what looks like a relatively new product to the market. It looks better designed than the provent with a better quality filter element.

What do you think @Dougal? Looks like they’ve built a better version of the provent.

Looks very complicated to me...

I wasn't aware of issues with Provent 200, I installed mine a few months ago and its been working really well extracting oil out.

The inlet and outlet are positioned to be aided by gravity, and it looks like liquid oil won't be forced past the filter element, so I bet it would be quite a bit better.

The direction of flow on the provent causes the oil to be forced through the filter element to get to the sump of the can for collection. This give the oil a chance to re-enter the gas stream. Mine has removed heaps of oil, however it has also let a lot through. I hadn’t realised until I stripped apart my intercooler piping and found oil pooled in the bottom of my intercooler. I now have a modified provent but now I’ve found this I may look at upgrading.

This is the throttle body on my 65,000km old Hilux with a provent fitted since new.

What is the modification you made? I’ve seen a few people mention it but unsure what’s done... is it just reversing the flow direction?

Dougal pioneered it as far as I know, I recently did a ghetto fab version with a Dremel and a zip tie. Basically it’s reversing the flow and removing/locking open the back flow valve so it will operate in reverse.

Another can that seems good to me is the flashlube one, have got one on the VDJ79.
Once again, similar to the provent but in reverse with entry on the side and exit at the top
