That is scary IMO. I can easily see something coming loose or a hose coupler failing after repeated impacts from pot-holes or bumps taken at speed.

I'm an engineer by day, and I don't care how light-weight something is, it still needs support. The fact of the matter is that that the intake still has weight, and that weight is positioned a few inches from that coupling, which causes a bending moment. I don't see why Stillen wouldn't take the extra effort to ensure it is secure? It just seems lazy to me...

Thanks for answering my question, FSP. The install does look good though.

I'm not sure about you guys but mines came with a plate that prevents the Intake from falling.

Umm...those things are on there tight...they are not going anywhere. I know what you mean LiquidZ, but those coming off is not a realistic concern IMO. I'm sure even if the clamp loosened and came off, you would still need a screw driver to pry the damn thing off the inlet.

Awesome build, hopefully Uprev will figure this one out soon...

What kind of an engineer?

Civil.

Do you do roads and street layout or building calcs etc... Seismic perhaps?
okay back on topic sorry Chris

Nope. I'm working with a firm dealing primarily with some major construction projects for the local wastewater plants.

Poo water, sounds like fun

as long as it pay's good i wouldn't mind cleaning it at all haha.

The wastewater plants have some of the biggest superchargers too :tup:

I wanna be a civil engineer, design septic tanks for playgrounds, so little kids can take shits.

Red, does Shittown USA happen to be located within the OK state lines?

I wish, apparently Stillen is not shipping the kit until the tune is worked out. So, now my car is sitting at Failsafe collecting dust. :shakes head:

yeah, the giant septic tank of Texoma known as Lawton, I hope the mayor of this town shits a fig seed and dies of anal warts.

so how did a beautiful SC thread turned into a **** thread???

back on topic lol
