first vrsf inlet install

MMMCOOKIES55 · 10-17-2015, 02:38 PM

hey guys,

got the kit in yesterday and figured since I was replacing my valve cover I might as well knock that out as well.

great kit overall. lots of nice quality hoses, clamps and nice filters. pups are cleanly bent and smooth. the pic pet location could be a little more of center to accommodate the house but it works.

How long did it take? Did you have to remove DPs?

yes, impossible without removing them

Jeff@TopGearSolutions · 10-17-2015, 06:58 PM

Any before and after dynos? JK LOL

Looks good! I'm sure a lot of people on the fence will appreciate more pics.

e92_boost · 10-17-2015, 11:25 PM

Awesome job they look great

Kienvu14 · 10-18-2015, 12:18 PM

So vacuum canisters are behind the valve cover. And where did your boost solenoids go?

Tiago@VRSF · 10-19-2015, 10:54 AM

Boost solenoids are under the valve cover, as usual. They don't get relocated.

MMMCOOKIES55 · 10-19-2015, 11:14 AM

Correct, Boost solenoids can be left alone, I did remove mine as seen in the pictures above but I did it for a completely different reason.

PCV line could be routed better.
