I went with the Mishimoto catch can. Doesn't require cutting and works with the ets intake. Plus it uses nicer molded hoses instead of the straight bulk hose.
I recently installed a Mishimoto single catch can on the PCV valve side of my '22 WRX. From what I read having a can on the CCV side is pretty much overkill on a stock or lightly modified car but maybe you plan to get radical with your car latter- IDK. It was a bigger job than I anticipated. Very tight space to work in and anything that can get in the way does. I'm glad I didn't have to do the CCV part of the job. That looks a lot more involved than I'd want to get into. I'll be watching to see how much vapor oil you collect in one can versus the other - I hope you do a follow up video to show us this.
@@StreetInspired1 Thanks for the link to your earlier video. It appears that the two 2020 WRX catch cans are installed at different locations than in the 2022+ model. For those who are not mechanically inclined, it would be great if you could make another video for the 2022+ WRX. I suspect not all technicians know how to empty them during the oil change.
Hey I watched this video as I was installing this on mine and it is great detail. Thank you. But I didn't cut the top ccv hose all the way through and I broke off the fitting. Do you know what the exact name of the part is? I need to get a new one
Thank you, video was a big help….just got them installed, was also confused on which fittings go with which can and which hose size for which system but figured it out.
No clamps are required for the barbed fittings that go into the can. (They're are very tough to get on all the way and pretty much impossible to remove once installed without cutting the hose.
@@StreetInspired1 good to know, thanks for this info. Also, great job on the videos. Have you considered a video about dropping the oil pan and checking for RTV in the oil pickup? Or, have you thought about making a video on how to properly bleed brakes for upgraded fluid on the 22+ WRX?
So if the can gets full enough to trigger the fluid-lock, the crankcase can no longer vent its pressure? At all? Or is there a bypass that'll allow it to vent into the intake?
Question for you, getting my Intercooler back in place was tough because I cut my hoses slightly shorter than I should have. They are wrapped tight to the bottom of the Intercooler ducting. Any reason to pull off and replace the hoses? They are nearly impossible get off the barbed fittings with a razor blade down length of fitting and doing this all again sounds like a nightmare. Thanks
I really do like the Radium cans. Had the dual kit on my VA as well. For the VB this time I got an opportunity to work with Perrin for their AOS. Installing and filming that install this weekend!
WHAT. Perrin is CHEATING on me ?! Jkjk They sent me one too but I have no idea how to install it yet. Was going through the instructions and looking at the engine bay familiarizing myself with the bits. Hurry and make your video so I know if I messed up 🤣
I had a 2016 with a stage 1. Never, ever any oil in both cans - no blow-by. Sold it at 30k miles. Now have a ‘23. Dont plan to mess with a catch can - will do fuel induction service at 30k and call it a day.
Question is in areas where we get cold temps what’s your opinion with condensation in the catch cans. One reason y i like aos from iag however their not making a system for the vb chassis yet
Even if condensation makes its way into the can it will get trapped and won't get out. Here in Pennsylvania it gets pretty cold for like 6 months of the year. In my VA wrx I had the same cans and got a little bit of condensation but nothing crazy. It just all pours out when you empty them. I hope this helps.
They're pretty simple they just unscrew and you can dump them into a waste oil container with your used engine oil. I have a video on draining them on my old wrx you could see here: ua-cam.com/video/5hu8SuFiWBY/v-deo.htmlsi=oQ3UcCV1tTfdAfvN
I followed your video and now am noticing radiums install pdf that notes disconnecting the battery. Was this an important step? or should i be worried?
@jaypee024 I feel like all manufacturers recommend removing the battery connections before doing anything on the car. I almost never do unless it's something with a lot of wiring. There is nothing to be worried about.
Just started to install my Radium dual-can kit and find there is nothing in the instructions to tell the difference between any of the AN fittings (they have different outer thread sizes). Well done Radium, genius move. From trying to guestimate from the pics and this video I THINK the PCV can (that fits on the brackets on the ABS unit) has the bigger-threaded one.
It might not be necessary but I would put hose clamps on the fittings to the catch cans where you dont have them. Might be going to the extreme one would say. I think it would complete the esthetic. I just got my wrb vb only 2 weeks old and I put 168 miles on it. Daily driving. Great video and install. It pushes me to make the purchase for these cans to maintain the engine. Indecisive because I am wondering if this voids my warranty.
Radium specifies that you don't need them because of the barbed fittings and doesn't include any, but i know what you mean. You could definitely add some just because!
@@dopewayne It's highly unlikely. They would have a very hard time denying a claim because of these. In any warranty claim, if they deny warranty because of an aftermarket part, they have to prove that the aftermarket part was a direct cause of the failure (which would be almost impossible for a device as simple as a catch can)
Looking for help here… I got all the way to installing the ccv bracket and I’m lost because the bolts literally don’t fit under the sheet metal. I can’t thread the bolts through because they are too big to even go behind the sheet. Any tips? Has this happened to anyone else? I have a 2023 wrx.
Very easy. You just unscrew the bottom of the can and dump it out. It takes less than 2 minutes. The one underneath the intake duct is a tighter area, and you'll have to remove the two clips and take off the intake duct, but it's not bad at all to service themA
One is better than nothing! If you are going to run just one I would definitely do the PCV. Both of my cans have already catched some oil but there's a lot more in the pcv side.
which air intake are you going to go with? I’m still waiting on Mishimoto to hopefully release one but I have come across a ton of good reviews for the ETS coi. Love your videos bro & can’t wait for the next!
I'm not too sure yet. I had an ets intake and mishimoto on my old car and liked the Mishimoto better. So I might wait until mishi comes out with theirs and then decide!
100% Just don't know which route I want to take yet. I was planning on the oem style duckbill, but I'm waiting because I know there will be a ton of other designs hitting the market. Noble is coming out with a spoiler that looks like the VIZIV STI concept Spoiler, and once that lands on the market, that's probably the route I'll go!
You really only need an Aos or catch can, if you do a lot of short drives or do racing. I had a Rex that was 95 % freeway driven no oil consumption and minimal blow by. My Sti is 95 % street driven and blow by was definitly an issue prior to installing my Aos.

In any warranty claim, if they deny warranty because of an aftermarket part, they have to prove that the aftermarket part was a direct cause of the failure (which would be almost impossible for a device as simple as a catch can)
Curiously, if oil catch cans are so beneficial & crucial to DFI cars like the Subaru 2022+ WRX, why don't car manufacturers include them as part of their original design but instead relegate them to after-market parts?
Because they need to be emptied, and that interval is not the same for all drivers. Yes, some WRX owners don't want to mess with maintenance (not me). Also, in cold climates you do risk condensation and ice in there that can mess up the PCV system if it is not maintained.
Thank you for making this install vid Cody! I was looking forward to grabbing these Radium catch cans until I saw how the PCV side can conflicts with the ETS CAI heat shield box :( I wonder if there's a way around the issue without cutting the box... Regardless, this is an awesome product and install video!
That's a bummer! I know the VA chassis had the same issue with ets intake conflicting. There may be a simple way to modify it to fit. I'm most likely going to end up getting an ETS intake, so I will be sure to show any modifications that need made when I pull the trigger on that!
@@StreetInspired1 yeah it’s a big bummer. I’ve seen some have taken a grinder to the box but I’m not sure how that affects it. I really hope there’s a simple way and I’m looking forward to your future vids! Keep up the awesome content brotha!
Man, thanks for making these videos for us. I've been wanting to put a catch on sooner rather than later. I was wondering if the pvc side can would be in the way of an aftermarket intake though🤔 what's your thoughts on this?
I believe there were fitment issues with certain aftermarket intakes on the VA Chassis kit. Some worked and some needed minor modification. It's likely that could also be an issue on this generation. However, I'd be willing to bet if there were fitment issues, it wouldn't be super hard to combat them.
@sethiousbell82 I would cut a small section out of the intake box towards the top where it meets the catch can. I personally don't have experience with the mishimoto cans on this model, but I used them a long time ago on my 2015 wrx and they worked great.
Just an update for anyone getting these. I bought the dual catch cans. I have a Perrin CAI with the heatshield. I had to cut out a little section of the heatshield for the PCV catch can for it to fit. I also have a Perrin charge pipe, and the CCV catch can is a little tricky to get the fitment. Make sure you watch the length of the hose, cause the angle at which it runs over the charge pipe will pull against the charge pipe making it touch part of the block if youre not careful. Other than that, it does fit fine. Also make sure you pay attention to the fact that he was leaving the fan out for the video, but you have to install the fan before the catch can.
It's highly unlikely. They would have a very hard time denying a claim because of these. In any warranty claim, if they deny warranty because of an aftermarket part, they have to prove that the aftermarket part was a direct cause of the failure (which would be almost impossible for a device as simple as a catch can)
@@vitaly062 "The Magnuson Moss Warranty Act requires manufacturers to honor the original warranty unless they can prove that the aftermarket modification (either the parts or installation) was responsible for the failure that caused warranty repairs"
Good vid. Nice and thorough. As usual i used my imagination to see the points where something would likely go less smooth as it did for you😂😂 Overall how long did this take? Id imagine still quicker than an AOS install
It actually took me longer than expected. I would say roughly 2-3 hours of course I was also filming and setting up camera and lights. And double checking radiums instructions. But I think using this video someone could do it in about an hour or 2.
I really like alot of radium products. That kit even looks awesome. Only thing that sucks is the price. For like another 40 to 50 bucks you can get an AOS and take all the extra work out of having to check and dump the cans all the time.
This is true. But I still prefer catch cans over AOS. My tuner changed my opinion on it. If you're interested in giving it a read scroll down until you get to the "AOS VS CATCHCAN" Section. phatbottituning.com/15%2B-wrx-recommended-parts

@@StreetInspired1 I went through the same feeling when I was removing the longer bolt in the alternator for the AOS. It SNAPPED and was then the loosest bolt head id ever felt. Luckily it was just really long and not a full thread bolt haha. Mini heart attack on that one.
Yeah I thought so...I asked them about this as well as baffled oil pans and general reliability mods. The long and short of it is: IF you modify anything in your car mechanically/engine wise they void. Cosmetics is all you can change as they don't cover the body anyways. Sad!
Ew subaru is using the same style of locking clamps that is used on the coil packs of the VA but all over the place. Those things make my blood boil. They never stay unlocked and you have to keep fighting them to stay open or yeet them off and hope they dont go soaring.. absolutely suck in tight spaces.
I went with the Mishimoto catch can. Doesn't require cutting and works with the ets intake. Plus it uses nicer molded hoses instead of the straight bulk hose.
Does the Mishimoto kit come with a dual can setup for both PCV/ CCV?
@@jmtcol5280 No but you can add the radium ccv if you want. Didn’t wanna spend twice the price for both cans when the pcv is more useful.
@@toyosup88 Oh cool, I see that makes sense. How was installing it? You like the quality of it so far?
@@jmtcol5280 it was pretty easy. Hardest part was getting the oem hose off.
