Any luck with the bumper separation issue? I have the same problem. Tried new clips and that didn't help.

Typical bumper issue if you're not too careful during removal. It's kind of annoying, but if you got the finesse down, it goes back in perfectly. In terms of the intake piping, just remember to massage it to fit properly. Everything was sized so your pipes don't randomly pop out if you didn't tighten down the clamps enough.

I love how this car looks. Any chance I can ask one of the photoshop gurus to try and shop it to look like firestorm? I would love to see how my car would look with this setup. Beautiful man, and so clean too

Can anybody clarify if there is a way to get the ecutek features like launch control, ffs, rev matching etc onthecarb tune for the Jr kit? I've been trying to research this but haven't found a concrete answer.

The latest EcuTek software revision contains those modules/parameters. The CARB tune was developed prior to that EcuTek software update so it does not have that programmed in. That doesn't mean you can't dial that parameter yourself...

Anybody with the JR Oil Cooler kit notice oil residue building up around the extension piece (right below where the two lines come out)? Is that normal? It doesn't look like it is leaking... but it is certainly not clean...

I was away for a few weeks (got married and honeymoon) and when I started the car... did the walk around and engine check... I noticed it for the first time...

Don't have a picture yet... but can post one later if needed...

*LongFella · 07-05-2014, 02:59 PM

Not the best photos, but is anybody else getting some oil build up here with the oil cooler kit?

I'm doing an oil change now, so I'll tighten the extension bolt a little more...

Just finished an oil change and checked the kit for any issues... Absolutely nothing wrong or any wear on any part!

I've got just over 10k miles with over half of them with this kit and oil cooler...and not one issue. Awesome! We made the right choice going with this kit!

What if the only exhaust change is catted headers(such as FT86SF uel). Would it need a custom tune?

Yes. High flow catalytic converter is not an OEM catalytic converter. You are changing the factory OEM emissions components and therefore the flow characteristics will change.

Any thoughts on my oil cooler seepage issue?

Mine had a slight leak from down there and from the tubing connections. I took it all apart when I did my oil change a month ago and so far everything is clean now.

Just make sure everything is tightened to spec, and you shouldn't see any seepage. It's a bit awkward to tighten without the proper tools.
