Not enough room to fit that intake upgrade

NeverBoneStck 10-17-2019 10:02 AM

Yep no room. Want to see Boosted version..

I have everything cut for the engine mounts, but it takes forever to drill everything. The whole things is 304 stainless, so it will outlast the car...but a pain to drill.

Are there any more kits available????

Yeah, check out the FB page...have Tuner kits on for Black Friday special for $6,750 to the door. F.I down pipe, recirculated wastegates, no oil cooler.

Be nice to have the intake kit

I’ve never had an issue with mine. Factory headers are pretty shielded and I bagged the turbo.

I highly doubt that’s the case, one buddy has replaced 5 filters. Another friend had the heat shield installed filter still melted, and another buddy had a shop install his kit and his filter melted. Plenty more cases where guys have had the filters melt and just haven’t brought up to attention. I plan on racing with this kit, and rather not deal with the headache of a filthy or melted filter.

NeverBoneStck 11-30-2019 02:49 AM

I have the intake kit. Install was not bad at all.

The one that pushes the intake to the front?

Then they aren’t doing proper heat management. Doesn’t change that you will feel more comfortable if you move the filter. I have run the kit for almost six years and had no filter issues. If you do proper heat management, it won’t be a problem.

The only heat management you can do is to move the filter placement. I have shielded, wrapped and header armored all around and in every case there are varying degrees of filter melt. Wrapping the manifold is fruitless. I've narrowed the source of the heat to the header/manifold flange. If you tried to wrap the fit would be difficult in and out. If you shield the filter itself it also makes it a difficult push in or coming out. The melting area is located in the 1'oclock to 10'oclock area of the filter. At it's mildest it raised the silicone and made it shiny, at it's worst it bubbled the silicone and was almost completely sheared. If it wasn't a problem there wouldn't exist two separate attempts to remedy. I have a collection of filters and also photos of my various attempts to mitigate. In the latest try I have used header armor on the manifold and around the filter and so far I'm ok but this is a stopgap for the relocation kit to be up and readily available. That's what I'm waiting for.

Moving the filter to the front won’t melt the filter. That was the whole reason behind the move. Hence why he also came out with the heat shield. Filter melting is a issue with this kit, just because yours didn’t or hasn’t melted doesn’t change the fact of the matter. You have any pictures to prove your statement throughout the six years? How many miles are you drivingbetween filter changes, your car a daily or hard parked.

What turbo are you running?

Bp kit 6267 comp oil fed. Set up for time attack. Car is still a drill e at the shop for awhile. Going rogue with the set up.

I think that’s the difference right there. I have the original P6266 turbo, smaller filter. I assume that Comp has the ported compressor cover requiring that big *** filter.

Precision 6870 but it also happened with the 6266. Both have the 4" inlet.
Edit: The V1kit has a smaller filter V2 is all the same.

Not all e 6266 have the 4” inlet.

Which is why I specified V1 vs V2. The compressor housing and routing of charge pipes is different between the two. V1 kits are smaller diameter inlet for the turbo housings

I’m emailing him now

Not all the V2 had the larger inlet, it just depended on if you got the ported compressor cover or not. I upgraded my V1 kit for the cold side piping, so I have basically a V1.5.

Sigh:
"The second reason (a result of the first) is the turbo options that will be available with the newly redesigned piping. With the new manifold the turbo sits at a slightly different location (very close to the previous). This allows me to use turbos that have the SP (S ported) compressor covers. These have a 4" inlet and a 2.5" outlet (vs 3.0" inlet and 2.0" outlet)."
