An oil catch can is essential on a performance vehicle to protect the engine from elevated levels of crankcase blow-by accumulated from aggressive driving. Excess oil-saturated air circulating back into the air intake stream can lead to degraded performance. Radium Engineering catch cans feature large 10AN ORB ports, a 4AN ORB drain port, 2-step oil separation baffling, and an O-ring sealed dipstick.

 


EVO 8-9 Catch Can Kit Details

Radium Engineering offers several completely independent oil catch can kits for the Evo 8-9 that are sold individually or together using the menu above. All kits work with the OEM strut bar. The first type do NOT vent to atmosphere (VTA), thus are emissions and track legal. Closed loop systems route clean filtered air back in through the engine to be burned and to promote negative crankcase pressure for optimal performance. Furthermore, closed systems prevent unwanted oil vapors into the cabin. The Crankcase VTA kit does not recirculate crankcase gasses back through the engine and is intended for race vehicles dealing with a large amount of blow-by gasses.

The Vent-To-Atmosphere Catch Can Kit (P/N 20-0182) is an open system used for high flowing, high horsepower applications. The closed system options listed above are adequate for most vehicles, however, some loosely built race engines operate with a large amount of boost pressure and the OEM hoses can become too restrictive from excessive blow by.

This VTA kit is intended to be used by itself as the only crankcase vent point. It replaces the stock PCV valve with a high flowing -10AN press-in valve cover fitting and 5/8" ID hose and allows the gasses to vent through the catch can to the atmosphere. This kit installs on the LH strut tower.
Because this kit mounts the catch can behind the battery, there is a chance that there might not be enough room for the included breather filter if a large battery is used. The small vent port at the end of the valve cover is plugged and not used.

The OEM valve cover is magnesium and cannot not be welded. Instead, the included -10AN male press-in fitting replaces the large PCV valve bushing. NOTE: this press-in fitting is NOT compatible with valve covers that came from outside the US market. More info HERE.
