Need some help installing M90

[Vapour Trails]

I had all my bolts holding my blower to the manifold back out in less than one year. I think blue loctite is a good idea. I don't think you have to worry about them seizing.

I called roush on what they recommended,but no answer yet..

No locktite here, just followed roushs directions.
You are gonna love the new power.....it's freaking awesome!

So far if I had to do over again I would start of by taking the nose off and the tires,putting it on stands.Its a whole lot easier to get to the radiator hoses that took me about 45 min. to take off,thats been the most frustrating so far.

These are all good notes Silver! from what you & 808 has provided and the few other write ups .... I cant wait ! Lots of beer ! a pack of smokes, some Redbulls and music and ill be ready to rock out !

On the torque specs for the intake what is 8-12 Nm?

On the torque specs for the intake what is 8-12 Nm?

The metric (SI) unit of torque is the newton metre (Nm)

On the torque specs for the intake what is 8-12 Nm?

8-12 Nm equals 5.9-8.8 ft lbs.

I'm sure you have one but I found Hose Clamp Pliers are a must! Here is a picture of my build so far... Good Luck

Damn that looks sweet under there especially with those colormatched valve covers. Very nice!

Throw you a Roush single bar strut tower brace on there it will look and feel great, you could even color match the bar to the valve covers.

Do they really do something or just look bling bling?

Quick question for you m90 guys. Does the m90 have a CARB legal number?

My car came with one and then initially after I installed the M90 I had to get rid of mine, then later I picked up the Roush single bar strut tower brace for the blowers. I can feel the difference but that might just be me, it tracked alot more straight with the strut tower brace on. Again maybe it is just me, but for $49-$69 dollars it looks good and is pretty cheap.

No idea.
