Hey Y'all!
 

This is Andy
I just bought Jesse's 2013 raven FRS which already has the "Innovate" SuperCharger installed.
I am in the middle of trying to install the Intercooler I just got. I having problems removing the inlet elbow(for lack of a better word) and if any of you have experience with this kit, it's a pia to remove the allen bolts behind the S/C
If anybody here has been through this before, I'd appreciate some words of wisdom!
Thanx!

Yes they are a pain in the A** and yes they strip relatively easy, so be prepared to replace them.

Also there is a huge thread int he FI section on the Innovate that has a lot of good content in it.

Thanx
 

Yes, I read that long thread.
It took a few days to read it!
I was hoping I could find somebody local who's done it before to give me some tips.
Thanx for your reply!

one of these elbows?

Ya! YouBetCha!
 

Yes, that be the evil bastage!

they talk about it on this page a bit. The elbows can definitely be taken off with the right tools and some patience or you can remove the blower.

Thanx guys! Hopefully, I'll be able to remove it

Some Good News, some not so-good news
 

I got the type of Allen wrench spoken of in the Innovate SuperCharger thread(even with the right tool, it was still a pia to get out)
But now I have a new issue, one of the allen bolts around the base of the S/C is not coming loose and I'm hoping to avoid stripping or breaking the head of the allen bolt off as was reported to be a common issue in the Innovate S/C thread. I am currently soaking it and all the other allen bolts around the base of the S/C with WD40.
Maybe one of these days I'll be able to take my FRS out
of my Garage and actually drive-it! Wish me luck!
I wanna be able to do weekend track days and attack the curves of local mountain roads here in the east valley.
