Topgunz - air to air upgrade

Optimiser

Do you really think it makes any difference in performance at all?
I have read elsewhere that it doesn't and is therefore totally unnecessary.

Hah, course it does f*ck all for performance. Never claimed it was for that reason. It's purely to declutter and remove irrelevant systems, and in this case also remove one more potential point of failure, such as a coolant leak. Could be argued that's a stretch but I don't care.

For day to day running about, no it likely wouldn't. At the track it will definitely help stave off heatsoak.

Any of you guys using an Oil Catch Can on this set up (Air 2 Air)? I'm wanting to install a catch and looking for some advice of what brand and type to go with considering our piping and the Stillen manifold Set up.

Had to re-up my membership, it must have expired overnight. All good now

I ended up putting smaller pcv filters on the front 3/8 barbs and it seems to have made a difference. Of course it's been raining ever since so haven't been able to stretch its legs to really find out, but it's getting into boost much lower and with less pedal. Actually it's running a bit smoother too.

I was getting 5-6 psi at 7800 RPMs before and now it seems I'm getting 5 by 6000. At least as much as I've been able to ascertain without really getting on it. Low end is definitely improved. Once it clears up I'll have a more definitive take on it.

I want to be clear about the additional idler pulley kit that I offer.

1. It will NOT change the ratio of the SC drive so it will not increase boost, but it will eliminate belt slip which will let you achieve the boost you are set for.

2. This additional pulley goes on the main drive serpentine belt that drives the SC jackshaft. It does not go on the SC drive belt which is the small eight rib belt that runs from the Jackshaft to the SC.

3. This design is not mine, it was originally done by Stillen (that is why the threaded hole exist in the SC mounting bracket). They apparently were using this additional idler pulley early on and then abandoned it for some reason. My speculation is that a little belt slip is extra insurance for Stillen in that the boost level is controlled by some designed in belt slip at high rpm.

4. PaulyZ came up with the part number for the idler pulley and a six rib belt that he is/was using. PaulyZ has since disappeared from the forum or at least the boost threads.

5. My part of this is designing a custom spacer that works properly with the "PaulyZ" pulley and finding an eight rib belt that could be modified to work for this application.

I hope this clears up some of the confusion of what is going on. Just remember that there are TWO drive belts involved, the main serpentine belt (seven rib) that drives everything off of the crankshaft and then the SC drive belt (eight rib).

If you decide to go to the 9lb boost setup either by using the Stillen 9lb pulley or the Vortec pulley, you will need the additional idler pulley to eliminate belt slip at high rpm.

All information has been disclosed in the forum on how to do this. What I am offering is the parts to do the mod with as little frustration as possible by eliminating the parts hunt.

Charles is installing mine and he sent these over. TBatt looking good??

Topgun Herd he was blowing up your line this past weekend

Cant wait

Looks like you have the extra pulley mod with the 8psi pulley. Im not sure anyone has ran it like that yet. Im surprised there was even enough room to fit the belt inbetween the two. It might smoke it.
