I've got a 97gxe with a v1 scer (3.6" pulley), vortech 6:1 fmu, y pipe, straight pipe, and cat back exhaust. I've had this setup for about a month and just have a couple of questions i was wondering if yall could help me out with...i know a bov isn't needed for a scer, wondering if there are any benefits to it besides it making a sound. Also, my tranny is auto, i have a moroso inline tranny cooler, but still want to keep track of my temp. Advice on what gauges would be good to have? I was thinking tranny temp, oil temp, and boost...thanks

 

well, you have a bypass valve right now. If you went for more boost you would probably want to change over to a bov. For ex, a blitz or something. The bov lets the built up pressure release when you shift. With your set up now I dont think you need a bov, you are recirculating the air back into the air filter right? You first should change your intake into a cold air intake. You will gain another pound of boost plus that little a$$ pancake air filter sucks. If you change out the intake then you might want to get a bov and upgrade to a 3.33 pulley. You can run that on your current setup, I did for a while.

 

Hey..I got a question. I bought my kit used and it didn't come with the fuse box relocation bracket near the pancake filter. Now, if I switch to CAI, would I still need that fuse box relocation bracket.

 

Good question. The relocation bracket is not anything more than a piece of metal. You def want the cai! I went along time without it just because I didnt have anything to cut the hole with. Go ahead and put the cai in and figure out the fuse box mounting later, maybe just make your own bracket.

 

fuel pressure and egt should go in the pod too.
