first vrsf inlet install

Tiago@VRSF · 10-19-2015, 02:04 PM

There's enough hose to route it behind the valve cover although we're going to tweak the inlet's PCV location in the future.

Wait, you had to make a bracket or it came with one? If you had to make it where was the vrsf intended to be mounted?

You can mount the vacuum canisters anywhere you prefer or you can delete them. We deleted them on our shop car without any adverse effects but we've included the necessary silicone hoses to re-route them if preferred.

What adverse effects were you expecting?

Can anyone explain to me how they jammed their coolant tank in that location without affecting the low coolant sensor? The sensor is being spun out of its socket and the hood pushes down on the tank causing the sensor to be in shear against the fender liner.

Also the PCV angles directly towards the shock tower and it folds over on itself (although this may not have any affects). Does anyone else have this issue?

I bought new coolant fittings as the 90* ones provided did not fit and leaked without using teflon.

I rotated the sensor 180 deg so the coolant tank will sit just right. On one side of the sensor the tabs are thicker than the other side. Just take a demel and make both sides the same size.

I used (3) 90 deg fittings for the coolant line to keep it from kinking and also away from the belts.
