Radium Catch Can Kit, Crankcase, EVO X, 2010-2016

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. Read about all the benefits and functionality of the Radium Engineering's popular catch cans here:

EVO X CATCH CAN KIT DETAILS
Radium Engineering offers several completely independent oil catch can kits for the Evo X that are sold individually or together using the menu above. 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 20-0105 PCV Catch Can Kit (shown below) is compatible with all 2008-2016 EVO X models. It installs immediately behind the RH headlight and plumbs in-line with the PCV hose. When the intake manifold pressure is close to or greater than atmospheric pressure, the PCV "check" valve closes and, thus, this hose experiences no flow. Conversely, the PCV hose will experience "metered" vacuum when the engine is idling, steady state cruising, and decelerating. This would normally draw unwanted crankcase vapor, unspent fuel, and oil sludge into the intake manifold immediately after a high load run. Note: Because Radium catch cans are pressure sealed, they are great for boosted applications as well so connecting to the intake manifold is permitted and will withstand any boost level.
The PCV kit shown above is a closed system that requires a vacuum signal from the intake manifold to open the PCV valve. 

The Crankcase Catch Can Kits (shown below) install immediately behind the LH headlight and plumbs in-line with the crankcase vent hose. This is the hose that connects from the port on the valve cover to the turbo air intake pipe. On 2008-2009 EVO X models which use the "metal" valve cover, the hose is 3/8" (10mm) and requires P/N 20-0106-08. On 2010-2016 EVO X models which use the "plastic" valve cover, the hose is 1/2" (13mm) and requires P/N 20-0106-10. These aforementioned kits were designed with the OEM intake system. If an aftermarket intake is installed, consider purchasing 20-0300 Alternate Location Mount separately.

During low engine loads, this crankcase vent hose experiences atmospheric pressure, but when the engine is at high load (WOT), this hose will experience vacuum and would normally be drawing unwanted crankcase vapors, unspent fuel, and oil sludge into the air filter intake pipe, turbocharger compressor, etc. For instance. if you are finding oil accumulation stuck in the intercooler, this catch can is a necessity. Oil coating the inside of the intercooler will lower the thermal efficiency of the intercooler.

This kit is not a direct bolt-on and requires welding. In order to utilize the included -10AN hose, a 2008-2009 Mitsubishi EVO X aluminum valve cover MUST be used. The included -10AN male bung must be welded onto the valve cover at the location of the OEM crankcase vent fitting, as shown below. 

The 2010+ valve cover is plastic and cannot be used for this kit. Like the EVO X crankcase systems above, this crankcase VTA kit mounts the catch can behind the LH headlight so there must be room for the included breather filter (shown above). Consider purchasing 20-0300 Alternate Location Mount separately.

Alternate Mount p/n:20-0300
The alternate location mounting kit is required if an Radium Engineering Crankcase Catch Can Kit interferes with other components, such as an aftermarket intake system. The kit works in conjunction with any of the EVO X crankcase catch can kits listed above. The 20-0300 DOES NOT include a catch can. Purchase in conjunction with crankcase catch can kit 20-0106-XX.
 
Alternate Mount Kit:
-Black Anodized Laser Cut Bracket
-Stainless Steel M8x1.25mm Bolt
-Sheet Metal Hex Screw

Petcock Drain Kit Option
-Anodized -4AN O-ring barbed fitting
-Nylon ??ÔÇØ barb mini ball valve
-6ft high temperature rated 1/4" rubber hose

This kit, sold seperately, can be used to remotely drain the catch cans without the need to unscrew the canister body.
