I'm asking $130 Jackson Racing High Boost Pulley (brand new) and $75 Jackson Racing V2 hard pipe (also brand new). I have a bunch of other stuff for sale as well, so if you would be interested in anything else I would be more flexible.

Congrats!
Make sure installed properly, don't forget clamping the hoses connected to the solenoid under the intake manifold (see the sticky), and if you don't have JR tune, get a reliable tune. |

Does clanping those hoses apply to the 17-18’s with the new red intake manifold?

The solenoid should be in the same place. I am not sure if the hoses are already clamped on 2017+ models but you can easily check by looking under the manifold on the driver side. One hose goes from solenoid to a connector right behind the throttle body. The other hose connects to a metal pipe on the driver side. After driving several months, those hoses were completely loose for me.

Are there any common install mistakes? The manual is super thorough, but I'm just curious if there's any tribal knowledge floating around.

There is a metal air pipe on driver side, going up from the intercooler, that touches the metal frame. Make sure you have installed the rubber bumper layer on the pipe so that it doesn't do metal-to-metal contact. Use zip ties. Make sure intercooler and air cooler are installed and bolts tightened properly. Take pictures as you remove parts. I guarantee you won't remember them when assembling. Don't forget removing the hoods from inside the bumper. The intercooler pipes will not let you install the bumper again otherwise. (maybe this was an FRS thing) Don't tighten the clamps until all pipes are connected together so that you can fit better and they don't stretch the bumper cover. Be very gentle and patient with removing and reinstalling the bumper cover. It is very easy to flex and break the connectors (or whatever they are called) Start your engine, prime the compressor, check leaks before reinstalling the bumper cover. I used gravity method (no pump) to prime the compressor. Start with as much oil as the reservoir takes and add as the level goes lower. You should have a little more traction fluid left in the bottle when it is fully primed. That is a smelly fluid! Torque wrench is a must. Make sure everything is tightened to spec. These are all I can remember for now. |

Question: does the belt start making a whirring/whining noise before failure? A new (unsettling) noise cropped up yesterday. At first I thought it was the rotrex, but upon further examination it seems to either be one of the many pulleys or the belt itself. Any and all advisement is welcomed. Thanks guys.

Interested in this kit. As far as safe power for a stock engine block this seems like the best choice? If i were to run the high boost pulley and E85 flex fuel would this still be safe on the stock engine?

So what's safe on this kit? I think you're pretty golden with stock pulley and custom 93 tune (if available). Push the limits with E85 and stock pulley and you're taking a chance. If you add the HBP now you're just asking for it. You can also run the HBP with 93 and stock fuel system for a minimal increase in risk from stock pulley. Is it worth it? That's entirely up to you. I would like to add that you're right about this being one of the safest kits because of the linear power curve. But rule of thumb is still torque kills these motors no matter what kit you go with. |
