Lockout when I went boosted, with zip ties lol

Hey Brad, Are the CMCV active on the GT350 intake manifold or do you have them locked out?

I would lock imrc for peace of mind against any fluttering concerns

My imrc's are currently active on my stock intake with the ESS SC, no problems to date.

@Brevin_G4_SS do you have that pulley vs belt chart? I could not find the post again.

I would of referred you to the install manual located on the website but I just looked, they have taken the manual down for some reason.

But what about a 100mm pulley can the same belt for the 105 pulley be used or does it need a different belt

Rule # 1- Do not reinstall everything before steps 8 thru 10. It's bad luck to assume everything is perfectly installed and could possibly cause rework.

I am putting together my install checklist and am hoping you could share some insight on this part. What do you recommend for pressure testing the system before putting the bumper and belly pan back on?

At this point in the install, I’d be on the base tune and the front end of the car would be off. So even going for a drive, I couldn’t go WOT for a full pressure test. I would really hate to blow a clamp and lose a IC pipe connection or something during WOT logging.

A boost leak wouldn't be detrimental really. I've had the charge pip come off a couple times. Once even during a dyno and it was fine.

The ESS kits come with Precision BOV's, the old ones were Tial BOV's. Anyone able to share any videos of either BOV setup or anyone found a better BOV for the kit?

I’m looking for the same thing. They said the tial bov sounded just as good as the big red from pro charger.

I run the TiAl q50 on my Procharger set up. Very small, sound good, and work excellent.

You can hear mine here during the burnout - I have the tial bov on mine

Sounds great! Anyone have a video of the Precision BOV that comes with these kits now?

Should work with the same one as the 105

Brevin_G4_SS did you have a update on orders

The pressure test was really just a visual inspection to ensure that there wasn't any obvious leaks around the charge pipe clamping, fuel injectors, coolant leaks, but at idle the bov is open so a real boost pressure test isn't possible. You can do some light neutral revs if you have a friend to help, but I don't recommend going for a real test drive with the front bumper cover off, your tires will rub holes in your fender liner at anything above 20mph. Just tighten all t-bolt clamps to 5 lb/ft of torque and you will be fine. Make sure you use some type of grease on your injector o-rings, use blue loctite on all SC bracket bolts and the SC pulley bolt, make sure you put fresh plugs in and gap them per tuner preference. Take your time, it's not a bad install as long as you have all the tools you'll need. Double check everything you touch and enjoy!
