It might have slipped to the bottom of the box, under the filter so when you pulled the filter out you tossed it out with the box. It is just held on by the clamp but it fits on there good enough that it should never cause a problem with working its way out.

Did you do your own install? Just curious because there is an individual big picture of it in the instructions. It's pretty hard to overlook.

It possibly got lost at my buddy's place before coming to the UK but I definitely didn't see it
No drama it is what it is
I'd quite like to get one from you if you could tho ?

I've got two more extra idler pulley kits waiting for a new home. PM me if you are interested. Cheap extra boost.

Anybody find some cool aftermarket coolant overflow tank that will fit with TopgunZ's kit? I don't have the stock one and we accidentally put the stillen overflow tank right on the pulleys and chewed it all up. Radicool!

I've just been scanning the net and came across this image I'm sure it's the chap on here
Dose anyone know what he's done in terms of changing the intake

That's Evans. I made that for him to try. I called it the hydra. See the small filter coming off the intake boot? There were two of those plus the big filter sitting in front of the radiator. Actually there were 4 but we couldn't get it to fit. He said it didn't make any more power than the direct fit I sent with the kit. I know there are a ton of guys wanting a better flowing intake, and I don't blame them because yes, freeing it up would make more power.

The only way I have found to get more air into the sc is to move the sc, hence complete redesign.

Nice numbers...bet there's still room for more....especially on "E"...read ur description...who was ur primary tuner Harry or Seb?

Just an FYI.....Seb isn't from Visconti tuning.....he runs/owns Specialty Z in Chatsworth CA....

bewhitey · 05-29-2017, 12:55 PM

Woops, I didn't know that about Seb. Harvey at the boost creep is the primary tuner. I am running stock pulley / impeller, 8psi. I want to keep it on the conservative side for now. Harvey still has more tune work to do but went on vacation and wanted me to drive it for a couple weeks. It has been doing some weird power loss stuff, all codes it is throwing are MAF related. Pulled them out and cleaned them, cleared the codes. Now I just need to drive it some more to see if it keeps happening. I think I am going to buy the stock coolant expansion tank. From some pics on here it looks like it is danger close to the pulleys but still fits

It definitely fits! Just scroll to the end photos here https://goo.gl/photos/6wexurgWYzweWzYw7 and you can see how close it is. There's about 1/4 inch of clearance and I haven't had any issues yet!

Too restrictive?
