What are the benefits of an aos? Seems like they are very popular nowadays. More for track setups? Or is there a purpose for a daily commuter?

Increased Intercooler Efficiency and reduced carbon buildup. I dont think this is the system for a track car.. more of a daily thing. For track I would think you would need a baffled catch can.
