Anything else you guys think should be on there that I'm missing? I forget what all parts everyone was asking about.

It's located directly underneath the supercharger.

Pictured below is my traction fluid filter install on my v3. I don't believe there is a difference between the v2 and v3 when it comes to this part of the installation.

Thank you Torry !! Well done !

As Obiwan, I m interested about the bypass ..
The intercooler can be changed ? The Traction Fluide radiator too ?

I wasn't able to purchase a traction fluid radiator alone, so I substituted a Setrab 7-row which is probably a more effective cooler. Considering mine is zip tied to the crash bar in the bumper, it better be more efficient as the air flow is limited in this location.

You can change to a different intercooler but then you should have a custom tune and your piping will probably need to be customized. A bigger intercooler might cause some latency in pressurizing the intake, depending on how much bigger. That's what I have in my "mystery" V1 kit originally from a member here in Turkey. Has a brand new supercharger now though.

My car do a strange noise some times on Drift lap.
In normal way, rear way, or lateral ... I hear it all the ways the car goes.
It's like the compressor still pushing and the bypass is opening the way but it's singing louder

It is like : BILI BILI BILI BILI BILI ...

I have a video : it s short but it can be hear at 0:12

In the V2 manual it is wrote : "After driving a while and stop the engine when the engine room is at high temperature, the belt may make squeaking noises. This is caused by the factory auto-tensioner’s adjustment function; this is normal."

Could it be that ?

Or my HKS Hypermax IV SP Coil Over could do that noise ?

So does cold air effect boost levels? I'm on a V3 100 mm pulley and e85. I had car out tonight it's in the 20's and I was pegging 15lbs of boost instead of 11.5lbs as rated.

I've had mine installed for about a month. So far so good. Intercooler was a pain to install because of the thicker radiator. HKS should redesign the kit with a thicker rad in mind. Chances are people adding a supercharger will upgrade that part.
Still have to send it my flash editor for the 93 tune. Car pulls great and has really good low rpm roll on the throttle performance even though the dyno graphs make it look other wise. Tq dip replaced by tq event!
