Very nice dude
how long did this take??

 

elaborate?

 

stu did u use 1/2 hose or 3/4 or 5/8

 

man 160 for you to do it? man thats as more than i paid for the dual pass. oh well maybe on of these days i will stop being lazy and just try and do it myself but thanks for the info

 

he probably used 3/4. since that is what the stock size is

 

eventually sometime down the road I am going to do this. would having a 2nd heat exchange, AND this extra reservoir introduce too much coolant into the system and cause a strain on the intercooler pump? I would hate to do all of this and then have to upgrade my pump as well.

Then again, if it breaks, i can always upgrade. it's just that $$ is always the determining factor.

 

I still lol at this misread

 

add up the costs of ****, then shipping, then labor, youll understand

correct

i dont understand how you could put too much stress on by more coolant with this setup.

 

no extra stress just more cool coolant to go through, i dont get how people cant folow what your doing...

just get rid of all the coolant, get rid of the pump and run an air to air setup

 

Coolant tank-$7.99
5 Feet of 3/4" hose-$5.99
Hose Clamps-$5.00
Two 90 Degree Elbow Connectors-$5.00
Sealant-$2.99
Shipping-$8.00
Labor- 2 Hours
You Charging 160 for something that costs $35.00 to make and Ship-Priceless

 

hey man, they guy is going to go out and buy all the stuff and hand assemble and ship it to you ready to go, $160 is not a bad price. not every1 can spend the time waiting for the sealant to dry, cutting holes, etc. it's like labor... in essence, it's a paid favor. if people want it, they will buy it or make it themselves.

on a side note... DAMN i wanna cool my car and get the ottp stage kit, the funds r rollin in, not much longer...

 

Comon matt that coolant tank is at least 9.99....

 

fail.

12 feet of hose, not 5.
i dont use 90's anymore. the things i use are $3-4 a piece
i dont use sealant. i use an epoxy, $6-7
shipping is typically $15.
how about the hole saw bit, the dremel used to finish various parts, as well as little other things here and there?
i also have to box it, buy the tape, etc.
you being a dick for no reason while making yourself look like an ass, priceless.

i hope you go into threads for buys on intakes, exhaust systems, or many other products and bitch about their cost vs price. you obviously are a very ignorant individual if you think it costs $200-$300 to build an intake and $400-$600 for exhaust. welcome to business.

Thats some funny sh*t

but yea this set up looks super easy to do. the hardest part is finding the right size coolant tank that will fit. just pull the stock coolant neck out and run the two hoses you have to the new tank. tada so you get more coolant making it harder for your car to heat up. I dont see why its so hard for some people to understand.

 

It's not hard go to autozone and ask them for a coolant tank it's the same tank at every auto store i've been at. cut 2 holes, insert fittings, seal, mount, zomg so worth 160 ain't it.

 

Maybe some people dont have the tools or time to build there own why do people always rag on others about there product costing so much if you dont want to pay it then dont buy it. Im glad there are people like hatrickstu coming up with mods like this .

 

GM came up with it years ago....rofl...and a better version at that...muhaha i love it.

 

dude if you dont want it, GTFO. and actually, GM's is a different idea.

 

hence why I said "and a better version at that"

 

in your opinion.

 

Hatrick mod > Option B, any day.

 

You guys are ******* retarded, I bought the kit and it was money well spent.

I would not want to put that together and epoxy the tank and cut the holes, mess with the clamps cut the tubes fit the connectors ect ect..... Like stated above, I dont have the time to be honest to go out and get all this and put it together. Plus the quality at which Stu put everything together is far better than what I would ever do.

160$ is nothing for that, and if thats a lot to you, dont mod your car, or try and do it yourself which I bet you would fail at.

 

Hm. So you think it's hard to drill 2 holes in a tank, and screw fittings in, then seal them?
It takes a 10 minute trip to the auto store rofl. Some people.
Wow. Does your dad mod your car?

 

I'm saying I don't want to do it, and I do not have the time. If I had the propper tools, I still wouldn't be able to do it in as great of quality as Stu.
Wow. Some people.......
