I'm going to try with stock wheels for a bit , then switch back to my daily 255s, and see if that fix the problem, I just put the fatties for the weekend to get some grip.

Anyone mount the reservior here instead of what it says in the install guide?

Yes I had to. My catch can wouldn't allow me to mount it back by the battery.

They move it there so that it would be lower the the blower, I believe.

Same problem I will have. Catch can will be in the way of mounting it by the battery..

I'd say relocate the catch can. That earlier placement can also get really hot.

just received my kit! Hopefully installing within the next couple of days, just waiting on a tune file for it.

Did a local track day yesterday (thompson, ct).

Gotta say i'm pretty happy with the power from a c30 kit on stock header and catback.

Spent a session in the early part of the day holding my own against an early 2000s viper, and the last 2 sessions keeping pace with a lightly modded 13' carerra 4s.

I'd lose a bit of ground on the straights, but not much at all. Very happy with how the car did when keeping in mind theres a bit more headroom on the table.

j.F.c.R.a.S · 07-23-2014, 07:21 PM

well I almost got through the install, until i realized I was missing the charge pipe for the hot side of the kit. Pretty bummed, and I have yet to hear from the dealer or kraftwerks on getting me the piece. I have no car until then.

OEM header failed on me after the 5th event because of the cats having a freer flowing catless or gutted OEM header makes sense I think

Hey all, just purchased a kit from FTEightySix. Black C30 with KW oil cooler kit. I love my Phantom Supercharger but wanted a little more up top to keep up with my buddy at the track. I'll be reading through the pages and pages of posts about installs before tackling.

Is there a single source for "Install Tips" or "Install FAQ"?

Thanks in advance!

Hmmm, good info sir, thanks. I have been tempted to get a spare oem beader for gutting, may have to actually track one down now.

Oem design isnt bad and would prefer to maintain the oem heat sheilding.
