Topgunz - air to air upgrade

Looks good man. Just so people aren't confused, brackets, block off plate and gasket maker come with it too.

Just to clarify...the pipe with the BPV in the pic by the intercooler only fits a 25mm and u would have to purchase an upgraded pipe on eBay for a 50mm flange in order to run the Tial right?

Yes this is correct and you would then need 2 couplers and two 2.5" t bolt clamps. However, if you let me know in advance I will send the couplers and clamps instead of the T-coupler.

I also would like to point out that even though you have a 6 rib belt vs. 7 you are still getting like 85% more grip.

6 ribs vs 7 = 15% less.... 2" of wrap vs now 4" = 100% more. 85/100 = 85% more grip!!

Do you plan on doing any tests to see how much psi you gain from it? Did you have a solid baseline before the install? It wouldnt be too hard to throw the old belt on and just bypass this if you didnt.
Just finished up digging through the Gates belt sizes and found a 8 rib belt that will work with the additional idler pulley that Pauly Z is using. Now to figure out how to remove one rib so that it matches the 7 rib serpentine. The 8 rib is K081088. I wonder what the minimum order to have a custom made belt is. I'm pretty sure that they make these as drums and simply slice them to the correct width. The printed label kind of gives that away.

Does anyone know what size idler pulley he used? What about using the SC idler pulley? Its off now because I went to a larger idler because of the smaller SC pulley.

I think so. I will have to check when I get home. Drove the truck today.

I have sent a message to Gates about the possibility of getting a seven rib belt made. It never hurts to ask.....

Hey guys, is this correct? I installed the tial, but I'm only getting half my psi now. I don't remember the coupler to the sc being crimped so badly.

Yeah no way it can be that crimped. Adjust the couplers on the intercooler and BOV and pull the pipes out where they aren't as deep into the couplers but make sure there is at least 3/4-1" of the pipe still inside the coupler where the clamps can get a good grip. That should straighten up that coupler on the volute quite a bit where it isn't crimped like that.

Thanks guys. I was adjusting it for a good 1-2 hours last night, but no luck. I'm going to try messing with it again tonight/tomorrow. I'm also going to purchase a couple hump hose couplers for the bottom. I'm hoping that'll help me out a bit as well. I'm really trying to avoid swapping out for a 90 degree coupler.
