Have fun with it. Great kit. Love the power. Mike did mine. No issues. Install and go. Cheers.

Getting my Jackson Racing SC and exhaust installed next week. They are to take care of the clamps on the hoses and I think I have all of my other questions answered. Anything else to let the installers know? They are doing the tuning due to the exhaust system eliminating the one catalytic converter.

I am still debating on Turbo or SC. If i go SC then it will most likely be the JR kit. And i would love to drive all the way to Cali to have @CSG_Mike install it.

It's about 8 hours, but we take our time to make sure everything is done right.. If I was really rushing, I could probably do it in 5, or under 3 with an experienced assistant, but there would be zero double checking of work at that pace. This includes priming the rotrex system, and fully warming up the car.

If they're doing a SD type tune, you might want to upgrade your MAP sensor.

No issues with my stock clutch and I'm about 5k into my kit mileage wise...

I saw a post about pushing this kit and some unstated problems.. Does this ring a bell with anyone? Have I somehow missed a reported problem?

I think the stock clutch is okay if your on the carb tune. If you get it tuned for more hp, the stock clutch wont last depending what tires you have

Installed this earlier this week (with JR oil cooler and dual radium catch cans). FYI... I relocated the oil reservoir by the battery without issue.

Really love the kit. It was well assembled, easy to put together, and feels incredible on the road!

Here is a quick snapshot

I don't see the oil reservoir in this photo.
Can you attach a photo of where you relocated it to?

Anyone hear anything about this kit not handling stress?

romin · 06-16-2014, 02:58 AM

Thanks DRM.
I decided to move my reservoir up higher to get it away from the over pipe heat.
Given I have a small track battery I was able to repurpose the battery anchor with an L bracket and move the reservoir behind my battery.

We haven't seen any issues and we are certain that we stress test our cars harder than 99% of the community. Do you have a source for your concern?

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the reservoir supposed to be mounted above the supercharger? I thought I read a post about this in the kraftwerks thread at one point.
