Innovate (Sprintex) Supercharger Owners Topic

2000km - 120ml
5000km - 40ml
7000km - 30ml
10000km - 30ml

The instruction book from Sprintex indicates change oil every 50000km 157ml.
Based on my records if I never checked the oil as the instructions on install indicate SC pre filled, I'd be ruining with no oil after every 15 to 20000km.

Sent this info to our Sprintex agent, which I'm advised new Charger is on the way..
Keep an eye on your oil levels.

I have had to fill up twice too, very short intervals in between. Surprised they are replacing it, I know quite a few of us have had this issue. Maybe its time for me to reach out to Innovate/Sprintex.

Side note, received the Airaid Box yesterday from a forum member. Couldn't install it though because the reducer coupler airaid provides is not long enough to reach from the intake pipe to the box itself (its meant to be a reducer for their hard inlet pipe - throttle body so understandable).

Will order a new hose and update once I get it just in case anyone else is looking to upgrade to this intake box.

Not burning or leaking oil in the motor, and I'm racing it in autox 1-4 weekends a month depending on the time of year. About to have Bill do a custom Delicious Tune with a Raceseng 70mm pulley and PPE EL headers and overpipe for 91oct.

Check my build thread for some pics and videos of the headers in action before the tune. Will post video and dyno plots of the tuning session at Infamous Performance after May 14th.

Bob,

Lets make sure to go over everything you would like out of the tune. I know people have different preferences for throttle input/feel, along with small other little factors such as response and want to make sure we address those items as well as obtaining the most reliable power we can from the vehicle.

When you get in for tuning, lets make sure to review all that.

Cheers,

I check and change my Sc oil monthly, hence how I've found how much is missing each time.

No oil cooler on yet, but have one sitting on the shelf waiting. I haven't needed it really for autoxing, but I wanted one to give me some insurance as I up my boost.

For sure, I'll get some ideas together and follow up with you offline. Thanks Bill.

I've been a bit vocal about the wait times recently receiving updates. I'm glad to see Zach on board. I think you needed the help, and the extra help is proving to be very positive.

With that said, I just flashed my car with your latest tune. My previous experiences with your other tunes were pretty good, but felt they were missing a little.

1st tune (back in Dec) - very happy with the tune. I tracked with the tune numerous times, and felt confident with it. However, it wasn't as smooth as the 2nd tune and my gas mileage was absolutely horrible.

2nd tune (back in Feb?) - felt very different than the 1st tune. I absolutely loved how smooth it felt, but had more knock correction and my IAM didn't look as good. It had some hesitation as you rolled on the throttle to WOT. I just didn't feel as confident with this tune.

3rd tune v8.58 (flashed today!) - WOW! What a HUGE difference!!!!! I data logged casual driving, and several 3rd gear WOT runs. It seems to be running a tad richer, which I like. My AFR, IAM and KC values all appear to be great now (I'm no expert, but they look 10x better than my 2nd tune). It is incredibly smooth from 1k RPM, all the way to redline. There is absolutely no hesitation. The power is great too.

Anyway, I'm in awe with this latest tune. I'm hoping over the next few weeks, the tune continues to impress me like it did today. I am 100% happy, actually BEYOND happy with your latest tune.

Great job Bill. You did a phenomenal job with the latest tune. Previously, my supercharger felt 95% OEM because of the minor issues with the tune. Now, it feels 10000% OEM. ZERO lag, ZERO hesitation. Ignoring the extra power, you'd never know I installed aftermarket FI.

Thanks!!!!!

What version are you on now? Ive been waiting for my update as well. I submitted a support ticket a few weeks back but I knew Bill was moving into his new shop so I didnt want to bug him about it. I have a trackday next weekend so hopefully I can get the new map by then .

We are slowly getting them out there. There is a backlog of about 50 people wanting the same tune. And I am getting them out, can only do a few a day right now. But getting there.

Not to hate but that seems like quite the hack to connect the airaid box I think the nameless pipe sits further away...I ordered a new coupler thats coming today, I will let you know if it works or not in connecting the nameless pipe/airaid box together. It was only 11 bucks so it will be worth it.

Do you have a straight of 3" in between those two couplers?

Looking good though

I just took the reducing coupler that airaid supplies (that's way too damn short) and suck it inside the one provided with the innovate. Works like a charm

So a bit bored and feel like putting in a boost guage.
Now im 99% sure i've seen something before about a bit on the back of the charger body that a boost guage can be plumbed into.
Anyone else know what im talking about or can point me in the right direction?
