Just posting this up to show what my dual radium catch cans are catching from my innovate supercharger. Left can is the PCV side and and right can is the engine breather side. About a weeks worth of accumulation with 40-80 degree weather and normal/ spirited driving.

Can anyone give some insight on what builds/scenarios would merit the intercooled setup vs non?
E.g Non is good for ###hp/Intercooled if ambient temps are ##F |

But I don't think there is a case where non-intercooled is better. Intercooled setup will give you more power. |

Does anyone have the official reason on why Innovate stopped carrying Sprintex? I haven't found anything in a search or in a press release. Was it primarily a quality issue?

Sprintex decided to enter the NA market and I'm assuming decided not to re-up the resale agreement with innovate.

Hi all-
I am selling my car, so I sold my intercooled kit to a fellow member. Unfortunately, USPS decided to lose one of the boxes...the box with the intercooler (minus laminova), harness extensions, hoses, belts, intake tube, pulleys, etc... The box they did decide to deliver only contains the blower with the laminova core installed. Does anyone know how I can go about replacing these parts? I need a full intercooler kit MINUS the laminova, and a bunch of parts for the blower. Sprintex was great when I called, but they requested that I send them an email since the guy didn't know the answer on the phone. Unfortunately, they won't reply to my emails. I'm in a major bind, and need parts badly. @SprintexUSA - I've sent a few emails to inquires@sprintexusa.com, as requested when I called. Unfortunately, no one is replying to my emails. There must be a way to order parts for this kit. Thanks. |

The price list posted is a great start, but there are many parts I still need. Also, considering that is the Australia site, can I even buy those parts from SprintexUSA? Unfortunately, I have a lot of unanswered questions just trying to get parts here. @SprintexUSA - can you please chime in? ...or answer my emails I've been sending? You guys have been great in the past, but I'm starting to get annoyed by the lack of response. I've already lost the sale because of this mess (USPS losing a box), and am trying to fix things so I have a complete set to sell again. |

You didn't make the buyer pay to insure his packages?

I actually paid for the shipping, and yes, I insured it. I only insured it for the rate of a "used" intercooler kit. However, it's been a nightmare working with USPS, and will take a minimum 3 weeks before I can even get the process started (this after showing them receipts, signed affidavit from the buyer, etc...). I've had very bad luck getting insurance money from USPS in the past.
The buyer is not at fault through any of this, so I'm trying to make it right for him. Unfortunately, it's all going to cost me a lot of $$$ out of pocket. I've learned a valuable lesson to only ship expensive items via UPS or FedEx. |

hi guys, I`m about to purchase a used innovate kit... are there any specifics to look for? I`m not gonna read all 273 pages but it seems like the belt and the pulley is where the issues are? and is it absolutely necessary to run E85 if i want to track race with the kit even if I will have an intercooler and an oil cooler?
thanks.
