    Hey seems I have now found out who Troy is and I've said it once and will say it again your car and the mods you have done are awesome. I'm currently in the process of moving the wiring to to the wings to help smooth the bay and wanted to do this mod to. Have you had any issues? Air locks? Over heating? What pressure cap did you buy?

    Do you have a link to the parts if they were from eBay?

    Thanks

    Glad you had time to read some of my thread Oh i have some Recaros out of a Cilo coming from the UK

    Actualy i have been having problems with the setup. I read somewhere to get a 16psi cap, it seems to not hold enough pressure, when the car gets hot, even after i turn it off, it seems to open and dump water. I have ordered a 18-21 psi cap which i am waiting for, hopefully it solves the problem, I will let you know how i go

    search, inline filler neck, inline filler, radiator filler etc
    There are a few floating around

    Thanks for the links. Once you fit those CS's you'll never look back. They are awesome.

    I researched quite a bit on the expansion bottle removal and they all say to use a 19-21PSI cap so that should defo sort your problem with the 18-22 cap.
