Fans are a funny subject. They help if you are at the track sitting in the staging lanes and want to circulate the pumps and run the fans or sitting in stop and go traffic, but when running down the road they have been shown to hinder cooling a bit because they are a blockage. I have mine...
The clutch will not live long at that power level. The MT82D4, (if you have a manual in 2020 that's what you have), is better than most will give it credit for. If you are just going to use it on weekends for spirited street hits, the MT82 should last pretty well. I am boosted for over 10K miles...
Listen to Mike, he knows of what he speaks. I have a Whipple Stage 2, and you will have to upgrade a few things to take full advantage of either, even using it only on the street. The stock injectors will leave you limited so You are going to want to go with a set at least as big as the 52/56lb...
The gen 3 does have an integrated O-ring type gasket that is replaceable. One of the theories that I have on why mine leaked was that it was from my original engine that had 47k miles on it mated to the original block and went through 1000's of heat cycles while attached to it. Then I went with...
Yes, it was leaking on a brand new built short block within a few hundred miles. I reused the oil pan from the original engine, which had 47k miles on it but a new gasket. Paid to have a new oil pain gasket put on and it leaked again within 20 miles. Had the Gen 2 put on, and so far, about 2,500...
I did the Gen 2 metal pan from PBH, I had a shop do mine, because there is no easy way to do it without dropping the K-member out of the way.

We THINK my P0016 was from being a tooth off. I cleared the code after re-timing the car. So far it has only idled for about 20 minutes and been driven for less than 2 miles. I am about to go pick it up and drive it home today, which is 22 miles. I will take it to my office today as well which...
My timing on the passenger side exhaust cam was apparently off by a tooth. We followed the procedure outlined by Alldata I started the car afterwards an it was quieter and sounded more harmonious if that makes sense. Before the car sounded angry and when I would let off the gas, it would crackle...
I had a vented cap on the oil filler, but was thinking I wanted more. The centrifugal guys do the gutted pcv so I tried that, but it was a bad idea. I reached out to Whipple about additional venting and they said you really shouldn't need any venting, to just route things they way they are...
I have side exhaust. It cleared up. Mine was from me doing something stupid trying to mitigate the crank case pressure. I put a gutted pcv in and I suspected it put oil in the intake tract. It took it about a week or so to clear up. As for the P0016, "we" are tearing the front of the car...
The older DW400's don't have the check valve. The newer one's like 2-3 years old and newer, have a check valve. Reach out to Wengerd tuning. Tell him what you want to do and what you have. He'll get you straight. I can't remember, is your car an A10? If so, you will REALLY love what he does...
