take apart the manifold and u will see junk inside of the ports.
blow it out with compressed air and it will be like new
Ok thanks, I'll remember that.... Its brand new so what would be in it?

But the tank elbow is blowing bubbles again, maybe I should ditch the locktite and use plumbers tape. It's doesn't look like its coming from the manifold.

V swears by it, but I'll try the tape on the elbow.

But again, the leak is from the elbow and not the mani....

OP, do you think this controller is worth the price tag? I hear nothing but good things about it, but kind of cared on dropping cash on something that won't perform. I had an Easy street controller, that crap sucked.

The controller is dope, definetly better than the autopilot.

Vlad exhausted the air outside the car which sounds really cool when it releases.

Thanks to Vlad, Jamin, Tommy, Tom, Chris, and all other from CL and VIPstylecars who helped out with information.

Next job...accuair sensors, Wheel reliping, LS400 calipers and Sage RCA's
Thank you for the credit Lee, I'm glad that I was able to lend you a hand with the install! It came out SICK!!

I've been trying to get you to go over to the dark side for 2+ Years and all it took was a hell of a lot of planning and Tom to list them for a good price.

As far as the leak we will address it this upcoming weekend sorry for the delay.

Like Lee said we do what we gotta, working in the street comes with the territory.

but that fool was on a custom tube setup front/rear



? wouldnt u ask vlad, he knows a ton....but what u looking at getting? im switching my whole setup again lol

btw forget that just get this
Hey Brian, Not necessary to tube and go all out like that dude did, after I put back my bumper I should be able to lay the front fully on the ground, all it took was coils, bag and a little cutting

That rockford Amp is nuts sucks that you need like 2-3 alternators and even more batteries to power!

There are a bunch of 5 or 6 channel amps that I can recommend Lee, just a matter of figuring out you power requirements. Wish I knew before hand I got rid of my Audison 5.1MT like 4 months ago.

Nah just do some stuff on the side as you know Mark. Send me a text one of these days we still need to finish out your project.

I've sold and used quite a few of them and have not heard of any real issues except installer error. What is it that happened?

We'll fix it Lee no worries, I have used the loctite in all of my applications and for the most part I have not had any leaks or problems. The reason why yours is leaking is due to my screw up, I should've applied the loctite only after we had figured out the angles instead of applying it and then shifting the elbow which could have broken the seal. The only issue when using loctite is that cleaning the thread is a PITA, but it seals better than teflon tape.
