Steeda's oil separator kit reduces detonation, oil burning and deposits on the valves by removing oil drawn through the PCV system before it can contaminate the intake charge.
Excess crankcase pressure (sometimes known as "blow-by" is vented from the crankcase through the PCV system, where it is drawn into the intake manifold and returned by the engine. This re circulated air contains aerated oil from the crankcase which is burned by the engine. Supercharged, nitrous boosted and high mileage engines often draw excessive amounts of oil into the engine through the PCV system. The Steeda oil separator plugs into the PCV hose between the PCV valve and the intake manifold and removes aerated oil from the re circulated air and collects it in a tube that can be drained and recycled.
The kit includes the oil separator, connecting hoses, a mounting bracket and hardware. Instructions for installation on a '03-04 Cobra are included, but the kit can be used on any vehicle.

Cons:
You can easily build one of these for significantly less than Steeda sells them for. I built mine (For my Mach 1) with the following parts:
Oil Separator with 3/8" NPT Fittings from Craftsman--$21
2' of 5/8" Radiator Hose and 2 90° PCV Fittings from an Auto Parts Store--$4
2 Brass 3/8" NPT to 5/8" Straight Barbs and one 5/8" to 5/8" Brass Barb From any Hardware store--$5
