RMW 30-94 Rotrex kit (front mount) - Luai - 08-12-2011 07:51 PM

You can literally get to any major part in the system in 20min or less. You can R&R the water pump without removing any of the front fascia. You can literally reach your hands down in the car after taking off the intercooler. 2 clamps and 1 bolt.
take off the intake manifold 5 bolts....... and get to any piping to s/c or water system.
We will do a video install so people will have a DVD to install the kit so I won't need to take any phone calls.........lol
Nice to hear that the rotrex run easily ... The video will be amazing for who bought and who are planing to buy!!
Jan I think you get 100 calls a day, for example me I call everyday
Jan hates me... Btw did you start the engine?

lol..........I answer your calls all the time..... I'm glad we got your car running great. It's always so much easier when you have the car in front of you. We are getting parts together to put the "pig" together tomorrow for fitment. I need to charge up the camera tonight. Still at work but another couple hrs and we can go home....

The DVD would be awesome!!

Is it possible to have some form of a lip at the top so the rubber seal still fits back like OEM?

we were talking about this yesterday. Once I test it and everything is correct, it shouldn't be that hard to put something there to seal it

Jan,
I mentioned something is the filter won't get wet while its rain or washing the car?
I think it needs longer aluminium cover on the top!!

@Luai- They are making some kind of seal for it

I totally forgot to ask. Does the Rotrex even need an oil catch can? I have one already and would be nice to re-use.
