looking forward to it, post up some pics when ya done.

 

Ya Im sure we will. My buddy who started this thread is going to do it for me!!!!!!! Im sure the mod will be fine but Im still nervous!!!!!!!!!!

 

don't be, after thinking about it for so long, when i do get to it, it'll be fine. so long as the holes are beveled properly, that stuff won't come out. i'm really looking forward to doing mine soon, just g2 save up a bit more $$ for the OTTP kit and i'll do it then... or maybe do this first to get comfortable with removing the SC sinc i haven't done so yet. i'll post up when i get to it

 

ok cool

 

How is everybody's plugs holding up???????????

 

anybody having issues??? Please report

 

I just ported my blower and took pics. AND THE PLUGS ARE FINE! They havent moved or cracked. That quicksteel is some awesome shiznit. I'll post pics as soon as my computer stops being retarded.

 

When you seal the holes, and then sand them down exactly how do u clean up the excess crap to make sure nothing will fall in the other holes and create bigger problems did u use a vac or napkin?

 

I used painters tape to seal off the bearings and then used brake cleaner to clean everything off. I would buy two large cans of the brake cleaner.

 

plan on doing this mod this weekend, im just not sure how or where to bezel around the silencer holes, can someone show me some pics

 

i'm upset, it's july and i haven't gotten the OTTP kit like i had planned, back to having only 1 job blows...

startingline05, as for beveling the holes, you'll want the top part of the hole, which is where the SC rotors spin, to be larger than the bottom part of the hole, where the air exits on the bottom of the SC. beveling is 'To cut at an inclination that forms an angle other than a right angle' so basically, make the hole larger at the top, so the glue that dries is larger at the top, so it can't go thru the smaller part of the hole. the 2 small holes are the solencer holes btw.

 

when i do my hahn stage 5 swap, ill take a couple pics of my blower.. ive been running the quiksteel for almost a year and a half.. not too long but my m62 still seems intact lol

 

Thanks!

 

does anyone know if you can weld the silencer holes shut???

 

DO NOT weld the holes.. thats the worst thing you can possibly do. the only proven method to safely seal the holes is the quiksteel.. why not just do that?

 

Absolutely not.

 

well, here are those pics.. this is after the supercharger has been on the car for at least 10000 miles with the quiksteel:





they are still the same as when i put that stuff on there over a year ago.

 

yup. thats proof it holds up if done correctly. mine looked just as new when i took mine off after around 10k miles too.

 

That's crazy, you can still see your finger prints in there!

 

Thanks everyone for your pictures. They really help put people at ease about doing this mod. Because it really is a good mod to do if you are bored and want more whine.

 

dam i wish i had someone local to do this mod for me i want more whine i got 2.9 and injen screams pretty good but still not loud enough....anyone know of a place that would do it for me???? im also getting 2.7 for xmas so i would like to do this mod when s/c is off

 

Its really simple man. If you have the mechanical know-how to remove the blower from the car than you can take off a couple more bolts and plug the holes. I dont think any shop would do this mod for you.

 

i dont.... konw how to take s/c off so there for will be hard for me 2 do it

 

It only requires some special tools to do it. I'd do it for you but sadly I live to far away =(

 

yeah.....i dont know what to do can someone make a video or how much it screams
