[QUOTE="Johnpappy, post: 1358709, member: 20484"] So, Whipple needs to edit the install manual on pages 46 and 47. As well as several other places. I have an electronic copy and will send it if you want. It helps to have it to zoom in on some of the pictures. Step 132. As far as I can tell Whipple does not make the correct hose for this step. I received a 5/8 hose “twice” when the fittings are 3/4. They recently changed the pump outlet and HE inlet size to 3/4, the manual doesn’t reflect this either. I used some leftover 3/4 hose and made my own. Not a big deal to do but wasted time talking to Whipple. Step 126 is incorrect. It should say this: (replaced 90deg with 45deg) Install the supplied 3/4” ID x 64 ½ ” rubber hose with the [B][I][U]45deg[/U][/I][/B] –10AN fitting (1” wrench) to driver side intercooler fitting. Install the 45 deg fitting to intercooler fitting. Tighten –10AN 45 deg fitting so the fitting is 90deg from the front of the vehicle (face towards passenger side). I did not receive the correct 45deg fitting. Whipple overnighted the correct part, but the fitting was not pre-installed like the 90deg for the passenger side. I’ve read that it’s best to not use the supplied clamps so I used a couple of really nice BMW clamps instead. You really want to be sure that you don’t have a water leak back here! Use teflon tape on all of the pipe fittings! Another confusing thing is that the pictures show the old setup. Really not good! Here is what it should look like. [ATTACH=full]123475[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
