Anyone upgrade the coolant reservoir? I'm on my 2nd yellow cap they keep cracking for some reason. Anyone else having this issue? 2nd one in a year.

Ha, thought it was just me. I had my first one crack during a dyno run. And Stillen will replace it, but on your dime of course. (Same with the temp sensor wire extender. When mine went bad, was on my dime)

Get the A2A kit and toss the reservoir to the side. :)

Anyone get an aluminum reservoir and make it fit?

Not good advice on the HFC's. They will have a meltdown from the heat. Stock cats. Don't take my word for it, I got the info from Kyle @ Stillen.

Yeah high flow cats will have a meltdown even sooner than OEM cats.

You can however weld in a metal substrate in the pipe ahead if the cats to absorb some heat before the cats do
