I skipped over that part. Yes, the water meth will help some.

Has anyone changed the open filter setup that comes with the kit? DYI boxes, compatible aftermarket CAIs, ducting, etc. To prevent heat soak and improve IAT.

I’ve seen a couple of posts in this thread but I just have to ask again and see if anyone else has done it or in a different way and their results.

I would start by wrapping the charge pipe immediately before the throttle body in gold DEI wrap. That pipe’s proximity to the blower gets it real hot in a hurry. Monitor your temps before and after see if that gets you the results you want.

Hey guys, does anyone know the length of the belt used or a part number for goodyear/gates/bando etc? I need to replace my belt but because of import fees and exchange rate the gates belt on JR website will end up costing me about 275 so im trying to find one locally, I would measure the belt myself but I dont have access to it anymore lol

I use the following dry flow filter. It is direct replacement. I just don't like oiling the filter for the risk of throwing oil on the MAF sensor.

I have not seen any cold air intake modification making any significant difference over the 50% power increase.

The most significant difference was replacing my exhaust with HKS HiPower SpecL and front pipe with HKS catless dual resonator pipe. The straight through configuration plus removing the second cat increased power and throttle response. I can't tell how much though. I have also replaced the header with larger diameter 2019 header. The first cat is still in place.

Above all, if you are going to make one modification only, get the JR dual radiator. That doesn't make more power, but helps tremendously with cooling. Heat soak robs the power. Save what you have first.

Jackson Racing themselves are actually using these for the kits now. I just ordered a replacement and they shipped me the AEM dryflow instead of the standard K&N

Good to know. These dry-flows last forever too. I have not replaced in years. I am thinking the recirculation valve is cleaning the filter with reverse flow.
