We had to substitute worm clamps for some of those, not sure if we had to for all though.

I was given 6 larger clamps (two for on the water pump, two for those lines coming off the pump to the heat exchanger, then two for the inlet/outlet of the supercharger) and none fit. The rest were fine, but then again the only ones I used at that point was the one under the coolant bottle, and the 3/8 line).

Little more info, I reached out to Radium.

We are waiting for the final parts to come back from the powder coater, then we can do our product photos and installed photos. This should be happening next week.

The catch cans mount behind the strut towers. One can behind each strut tower. No relocation of any components is necessary. It is highly unlikely the location will interfere with any aftermarket mods, we paid close attention to that when designing them.

Pricing for the dual catch can kit will be $425USD which includes everything needed for install. We will also offer each catch can kit separately, since they are on separate brackets. That way a person can purchase just the PCV catch can kit or just the crank vent catch can kit.

Kind of like our offering for the S2000:

We have several other parts as well for the FR-S BRZ platform that will be released over the next several weeks.

Why are the catch cans $425 and the duel catch can kit for the s2000 only $254.00?

the dual kit for the s2000 is 450. You have to select the dual can option in the dropdown. the $254 price is for a single S2000 can.

Does anyone know the specs of the hose that runs out of the rear of the crank and into the supercharger?

EDIT - I found them:

It may have not been clear in my earlier post but the catch can I found is really similar to the radium catch can at less than half the cost. The little basket threads into the top. Air coming through the can passes through the basket, into the can and out the fitting at the top. I added part of a copper scrubber that you can get at a grocery store to help collect the suspended oil. Radium uses similar stuff on the S2000 can. All the oil falls into the cup and can be checked with the dip stick. I am not saying radium doesn't make an awesome product but I would rather spend $200 bucks on a track day and some fuel. You could even mount two side by side similar to how the post quoted did. I would buy two sealing washers and an o ring for the dipstick.

If you want an easy install and are willing to pay for it by all means radium is the way to go.

When we toss the robispec r/oc on @xjohnxs car, I'll be replacing that house with the correct size.

Holy crap, yes.

Yep, the only spring clamps supplied that we could use were the smaller ones on the way too small overflow tank hose. The others were one size too small.

same as top, 3. follow the top bolts straight down, they are in the same spot.

Getting to those lower bolts on the elbow is easier than the supercharger bolts? I'm not seeing how that makes it easier to remove.

Like he said, 3. make sure you've got some long and standard sized wobble head hex keys (5mm, in particular). it will make everything much easier.
