I'm running the 2.87 pulley for now. I made a crappy video a couple weeks ago but it will give you an idea what it sounds like... It's very loud but it's kind of growing on me lol.

NjsGT Posted June 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2011 Kurgen, how did you get the FRPP mani to fit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKurgan Posted June 30, 2011 Report Share Posted June 30, 2011 Kurgen, how did you get the FRPP mani to fit? I slotted the 2 bolt holes in the thermo housing, clocked it a few degrees to the left(if you're facing it), and tossed the Paxton spacer in the trash lol.

NjsGT Posted June 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2011 Awsome vid too.... That Tial sounds so sick..... Cant wait... I have a frpp manifold but couldnt firgure out how to get it to fit with the thermo housing being so high... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you opened up the 1 of the 2 tapped holes on the crossover then ran a bolt through it? Basically, you have to mod the thermo housing/crossover to make it work...

TheKurgan Posted June 30, 2011 Report Share Posted June 30, 2011 So you opened up the 1 of the 2 tapped holes on the crossover then ran a bolt through it? Basically, you have to mod the thermo housing/crossover to make it work... You have to open up both bolt holes on the thermo housing(essentially elongate them)....almost all the way to the edge. That allows you to twist the housing to the left to avoid hitting the pulley. You still have to use the metal coolant pipe that Paxton supplies because it will still barely touch the supercharger. It's very tight but it will fit this way. I've had no problems whatsover with this method. Let me know if this makes sense. I can go snap some pics tomorrow if need be.

Gotcha, so you left the tapped holes alone and just opened up the thermo housing its self.... Listen, if its no big deal could you take a pic? You would help me a ton.....
