You have a 2.70 right? Had the bracket made with the extended tensioner slot?
if so, all you need to do is put that bad boy on, this is your boost issue.

Your belt is way to loose.

I have the stillen one on but don't have the the two nuts like that and yes it has the extended slot. the one I posted in the picture is a 3" pulley.

Interesting. Right now I think I am the only one who has gotten this to work out good. So good in fact that I am searching forums for a good used V1 Ti or Si trim head unit. Those can be taken to higher RPM's, you can use COGs safely on them, and they max out at 26psi vs. the 22psi mine is rated for. I wouldn't be doing that if I felt my setup was not adequate. My intake temps are barely above ambient.

Now hearing its still going to be w2a is a bit disappointing. So I'm guessing the only redesign they will do is move those MAF's post blower. Which still kind of sucks. The MAF's will now read ultra hot temps since the intercooler will be after the mafs themselves. So the car will still not be able to understand how to advance or retard timing. Plus that tiny aftercooler sucks ballz. It would be safer to run higher boost, but power wise it is still going to be on the bottom of the barrel. Sure, someone might get on the dyno and rip a near 500whp pull, but that is a dyno queen world, not the real world. Once heat soak takes hold on the street, which will happen quickly, then that thing will lose hp like crazy.

Any chance of your setup getting reproduced? Seems like the interest is there.

Ive thought about it. But when you have guys that are much better at that sort of thing, (BP), then I didn't want to make a competition about it. Sasha still states he is going to pursue this in the summer. He is a good TIG welder, I suck.

If I did I would just model everything I have on my car in CAD then send it out to a third party to have everything made up. This would take some time but the kit would be pretty sweet. I do however have a 3 stall heated garage now so I can actually work on something out there.

EVOHUNTER · 01-28-2016, 08:42 AM

Sasha has already been working on it, were going to try 2 things.

Sebz is down end of may, so tuning will start then,

hes going to try to make a dual pipe into the manifold, but were also going to build a single pipe - 4.5" where the mafs mount.

This way if we run into problems with the dual setup, will have the single ready to go!

Not real busy at work today. So I have spent most of the day looking at what it would take to have my kit replicated, with MANY improvements. I am curious as to the amount of guys on this forum that would want a kit. Right now I can only think of 5 or so. At that amount it wouldn't pay to reverse engineer it and get a shop to weld up a new, improved prototype that would be worthy of selling. I did find a great shop with an awesome rep that wants to do it. So I need to get a certain amount of interest before I would have them pull it all together. Of course I would use the first one they did.

IF INTERESTED PM ME.... "I'd take one"

I have a friend who is interested in this kit. Could you pm me detail about the kit so i can rely the information over to him.

My friends are at Homestead and I'm watching the 24 hours of Daytona, this sucks!

Push you luck!

JWillis72 · 01-31-2016, 09:10 AM

Thanks guys! The trans should be back tomorrow by the end of the day. In still concerned about the sound we thought was in the trans but I'm excited to see if the new pulley and tighter belt changes thinks.

Poll

If you went air to air would you rather:
A. Turn sc volute to face opposite direction- requires Taking out 8 small screws from front of sc unit that are tough to get to, but possible.
B. Cut radiator fan shroud - plastic, would require an angle grinder.
C. Have oval pipe off sc to fit between engine and radiator shroud - no modification required. Very slight loss of cfm. This could be used in the "out" from intercooler also, so there is zero cutting at all.

The only way to get piping in the engine bay, if round, is to cut, open up, the holes where the oem intake normally is. This is required on gen 3 stillen intakes as well.

I'd prefer option A as well, but the other options aren't deal-breakers either!
