...but ive heard that this is a bad idea! but it states to do this in the manual!!!

now that i've read the manual... i really dislike greddy... leaning over toward dezod...

but its so much more expensive and doesnt have as nice as a manifold!!!

anyway... what should be used for the oil fittings? nothing? sealant?

thanks!

 

do not use teflon on oil fititngs...they will flake off and can cause turbo damage etc...

 

Very true^^^

 

chalk up yet another reason why I dislike Greddy so much

 

So... is Dezod going to make that EL manifold for us? That might make a few more people switch on over...

 

What should be used instead?

 

High Temp Silicone. You can brief yourself on the turbo install with the Dezod Tech notes. Makes everything pretty straight foreward. Brief over "Scion tC Turbo System Install Pointers" :D

couldn't ya just used some pipe compound also?

 

Thanks for the support guys. I can also agree with Kenny in that teflon is a BAD idea. I remember posting on the turbo kit pics thread to a member that had teflon. Luckily he already removed it after the pics.

We've been working on a lot of upgrades lately and have been doing a LOT of testing. The next few months will be huge for us, and there's some developments that we can't really discuss right now. We've been spending the extra time to develop upgrades that work on previous customers cars so they can utilize the benefits as well, without replacing their entire kit.

 

well whatever it is, make sure to have it shipped with the 07 auto kits!! we can wait

hehe
