The SC still mounts just as usual. What this does is change the outflow position. The ESS is setup with the outflow on the bottom. I am saying loosen it and rotate it so that the outflow is on the top pointing backwards. This won't work/do anything on the ESS kit but would just have the outflow on the top which could then be plumbed into a custom intake manifold with a built in intercooler. Here is a picture of what I mean-SC outlet on top. |

Sorry! Didn't read it thoroughly So if you were able to do this, you'd be able to venture the possibility of an intercooled manifold?! You're a wizard Har.. Marty

First off congrats on the purchase and thanks for sharing the pics!
I'm curious as to why the supercharger has a braided line attached to it when it's supposed to be a self contained version?

Although it is self contained, I'm GUESSING its possible to lose some of the oil inside the unit, someway somehow... I'm honestly a newbie when it comes to this fancy stuff. Never had a FI car or FI equipment for that matter... Glad they supplied some oil with the kit though! Moving forward with this, will definitely teach me a thing or two.

I know 2 different beasts entirely, but Alice also has an n54 manifold, and I wonder if it would benefit my car as well in the grand scheme of things. And of course follow it up with a 3.91 diff like big had mentioned in his n54 manifold write up.

If so then for sure do a 3.91 with LSD. Your shift points at 7500 would not be bad at all the 2-3 shift will be around 58-59mph, 3-4 shift like 92-94mph. About the same as 3.73 rear diff with stock redline. |

Yeah, not too much of that for me here in VA. However, live close to what would be the sticks in TX have to take the highway to get anywhere... The main plan if I was going to get an actual lsd was to get a 3.64 as a happy medium. But I need to read more on the types. Pete gave ne a nice TLDR about ramps the other day. Just picking between what I've seen on diffsonline. But thats another big buy that probably wont happen for a while after the kit gets installed..

But I've known a few people with the Diffsonline diff, and I've heard good things. I'm more of a Wavetrac guy though, I'll be (maybe) looking into them. |

And there are sooo many options on the website, dude. I'm just there scratching my head trying to figure my life out lol... I THINK I read quaife was the way to go in terms of keeping DTC functional, but even then, I'm sure theres pros and cons to going that specific route vs. another differential with dtc disabled
