[Greg Hazlett]

Good plan; sometimes the best thing is to step back and rest.

finally got the car running, stupid mistake on my part after a long day.

I had the intercooler pipe with the maf upside down. turned it around and it started right up and idled fine.

So how long did it take you to complete the install?

 

[Silver_Coyote]

About a day and a half. A lot of wasted time and things that could of been avoided but really not bad, just time consuming.

FYI, if you have a BOSS radiator, and go 8 rib, your fan will not clear, and you will need to modify the oil cooler lines.

did we learn this the hard way?

Not really, it was more like oh that needs to be done so we did it.

Figured people need to know that are in my same boat. BOSS rad and BOSS oil cooler + 8 rib = modify

I'll be installing this on my '12 Boss next week. It better not take near as long as the Kenne Bell on the 07. Looks like a piece of cake next to that!

Im finally going to start my install Friday. I have had it sitting around so long and it finally time!!!

 

[gizmo5]

all of you need to stop being piles of fuckass and post pics during installs.........

Spent some time in the garage today in order to organize all the parts and ensure I have everything I need. I pulled out the Resivor that came with the kit, and the one I bought from AM. I am unsure if I bought the correct one. Hope so, and hope you all can tell me.

 

[konablue11gt]

Looks like its the one that mounts to radiator..if so you bought the wrong one you need the one that bolts to the strut tower. I have one if you need ..canton used about 5 months before I got the JPC one. I'll sell it 85 shipped

 

[stang8psi]

nope you bought the wrong one.. You need this one

Shit, Looks like I will be contacting AM tomorrow in an attempt to exchange it. If it doesn't make it here in time fore the install this weekend then I will use the crappy one that comes with the kit.

 

[gizmo5]

Wrong one. Return it, and get the JPC one anyways

Was reading about popped motors and I just wanted to throw it out there that mine was stock intake, stock pulley etc on a 93 tune. Still ran, just smoked badly. Just got back home after being gone fo a month. Going to pull the motor and disassemble in the next two weeks. I also still had cats.

Alright guys, I've come up with want I am going to purchase.

Paxton Tuner Kit from Terry, ID1000s( I plan to build the engine later on), Vortech BAP, and JPC Resivor Tank. Possibley use my Steeda CAI if I can rig it up like Gizmo instead of buying JLT or the Competition Intake. Wait, I think I basically put together the "Beefcake Special" kit lol.

I already have O/R X so that should free up some power.

Which CC setup should I go with?

Edit: I should be ordering which spark plugs? I read earlier about the NGKs...

I really like the Brisk plugs. the RR12 has been a pretty good plug for all the kits we have done.
