    Radium oil catch tank

    I just got mine back from Emma and Gareth at elms
    These guys really do look after their customer so thank you both very much

    Ok ive also just got my radium oil catch tank breather system and it looks sick
    Here's what it does:http://radiumauto.com/media/blog-pag...-Catch-Cans-25

    Basically takes hot oil vapour thats traveling from your crank case to your inlet manifold cools it and collects the oil allowing less oil vapour into your manifolds.

    Looks good shame about lack of braided hose and anodised fittings

      The kit costs $299 and $77 basic shipping takes a week
      My custom bill came to £97 all in but thats cos i got other bits!!
      Radium do a 10% discount due to you needing a universal mount bracket and not the one supplied in the kit.
      Kit consists of;1 radium 7xfilter catch tank with dipstick level check
      1x90 degree fitting 1x straight fitting 2xpipe fittings
      A long flouralines pipe which is lined not to rot with oil passing through it
      Couple clips a universal bracket and the bolts

      This is the can well finished billeted aluminium
      Extremely well built and put together worth the money me thinks
      All i gotta do is install it and see how it improves the car.its not going to give power gains its job is to stop hot oil vapour from mixing with the fuel which should raise octane levels.

        They are anodised fittings the pics not great
        I think you can get a length of braided hose but im going stealth and don't wanna scratch the carbon running the pipe over it

                        Fitted catch tank

                        So this easy to fit system works great the car feels more responsive but only slightly in my opinion.it won't gain any power but it does let the engine run cleaner!

                          I removed the pollen filter and tray then i removed the back bulk head cover which allowed me to remove the plastic cover near the fuse box.
                          I measured up where i want the tank to sit then drilled the holes and bolted the bracket in.i had to bend the bracket slightly to accommodate the tank.
                          Fitted the cover back then the bulk head cover.
                          I had to elongate a hole to accommodate the pipe work so i moved the wire further down so i could use its recess to fit the pipes.once done i fitted back the pollen filter so that i could run the pipes accordingly.the plastic pipe that sits on the plenum to rocker cover i had to cut so i could use the ends.i bolted the pipes to the tank ran them into the engine bay and cut to the length i wanted.inserted the fittings clipped them on tightened up the fittings tank side all done!!
