I think the oil lines are for the oil filter relocation kit... The PS lines are for the PS cooler ... And I believe the Rotrex is in fact an enclosed system.... as pictured it has its own formulated oil used only in the SC.... I doubt it would be added to your engines oil :)

Sam, very impressive... It sounds amazing on video and im sure in person it would be even more beast...... Looks great as well.... great job...

I know for a fact from my experience with a rotrex sc set up on my 2002 m3 that the 81 trim is good for 500whp. I am really interested to see what the 91 trim can do !! I would think the 91 trim can make way more than the stock motor can handle.

The rotrex unit is self oiling and has a resivoir that you keep leveled off like power steering fluid and has it's own oil cooler !
Nice job GTM !!! I'm excited about this !

on a side note...its nice to see the main components of the S/C nice and low to the ground...much better for center of gravity. The last place you want more weight is up high in the front of this already nose heavy car. Curious to hear Sam report the total weight of the kit as well.

I spoke to Sam last night for 45 min at 11.00pm. I reminded him that you sent him a "PM".
He recevied it but has been too busy to get back to you. He has been up to many late nights working on the SC. He told me that he will get back to you ASAP.
I did not forget you, "my fellow Canadian "
Did you see the Hockey Game.
Canada 3 USA 2
2010 Olympic gold metal Champions.
It was madness here in Toronto last night.

It was madness here in vancouver, i was working there for the game and all the other games for the olympics..lol

You guys dont need to worry about what will happen with a oil cooler sandwich plate!!

You dont need one!! You would simply plumb a front mounted oil cooler inline into either one of the 2 large lines going to the oil filter relocation.

So, just remove one of those 2 lines, and send it to a cooler, and the cooler output back where the line originally went.

so once again, no need for a sandwich!

Sandwich plate = thermostate
you don't want to use a thermostate :confused:

Yeah but if you do it that way then the oil will be circulated through the oil cooler constantly and im most cases keeping the oil cooler then it should be. Most sandwich plates have a built in thermostat to redirect oil only when its temp gets above 180F.

if you want a thermostat... then add a thermostat! no problem guys.

Remote Oil Thermostat - -10AN Mocal Remote Oil Thermostat

im sure GTM will put together an oil cooler kit to go along with this SC kit anyway... but you can see here thats its just a matter of 2 hoses, a cooler, and that thermostat if you want one.

Thanks for the post. I never seen an inline thermostat like that, looks great.

You beat me to it, i've used that style before on other cars with great success. The other thing i'm sure a lot of people are forgetting is you should be able to mount that oil filter anywhere you like. I'm sure GTM can offer other solutions as far as the oil lines, or you could just pick up some AN fittings and move it anywhere you want. in doing that you could even run a much larger than factory filter if you felt it necessary.

As far as the filters, i thought somewhere in the other thread it was said that it was done for clearance reasons. Two smaller pipes fit and one large one didn't. Rather than just bottle neck down, they split it in two.

Great job GTM :tup: great price!! I'm really interested in this kit, I'd like to see some more testing as too how it stacks up as a daily driver kit. I have a lot of the same concerns as others, but mainly drivability, over-heating issues, and reliability. Also, what's your estimate on the time frame for Carb approval?
