To confirm, are you supposed to use the o ring that comes with the new R. 170? Or did you reuse the existing stock oring like they had you do with the SC install?
hey folks,
So I recently finished my stage 1 complete whipple kit install. Everything seems to run great, IC pump is flowing, belts have no sounds and coolant is where it should be/heat is working perfect.
My question is around temps. As I drive around (20-30 min drives) I notice in traffic and...
Still no test drive yet unfortunately. We've been hit with two storms in the last few days, the latest one dumped 12" of snow down last night. Not a fan. Here's some pics of the final.
Looks clean brotha.
Just an observation... is your IC coolant pink like the regular coolant? What kind...

Yea man, how outdated the install guide was, it made install a lot for timely then it had to be. I emailed them as I basically corrected and added notes throughout the install guide that can make it much easier. Who knows I’d theyll use the edits I provided cause who the fuck am I right? Lol

I’ve driven the car probably 5 times since install, total of maybe 50-70 miles. 5-8 WOT’s, can’t say I’ve felt any belt slip (not that I’ve experience it before and am an expert). I’ll check when I get home but believe my tensioner is...
Btw, I’m using the below belt that was used with the kit before the update and recommended by @db252 who has done a lot these. It’s 106 length def doesn’t match up to their chart, can’t say I’ve had belt slip although I’m not sure I’ve tested it enough to feel it. Idk... guess maybe I’ll grab...
What’s concerning/frustrating is that @YumaStang ia being told one thing and tech support is telling @96gt4.6 another thing that’s not reference in the install guide, tech tips, and even contradicts the recent updated belt chart they released.
@Whipple SC we understand designs change frequently...
Thanks man, I didn’t expect it to be easy but just wanted to check and be sure it could be done.
To norms point, I assumed there would be adjustment to it once you put the weight back down and moved it around a bit, I’ll just measure that difference with my angle gauge to get a relative idea of...
