How did you cap off the inlet/outlet on the radiator? |

There are 2 ways. Either take a pair of pliers and crimp the line that you peave in the rad. Cut it close and bend it over. The better looking approach would be to grab another AN adapter and lock it on and cap the other end. I chose the first one because it was free and nobody sees it anyway lol

Been a little while since any updates. I have an appointment in the spring to get the car dyno tuned finally. Found a competent shop within an hours drive of me. Once this combo is nailed down, I'll be adding an ESS supercharger setup and see how much I can safely draw out of this combo

So the ESS directions are an absolute train wreck. I mean, they are bad. That aside, the kit is top shelf and I couldnt be happier with the quality of every part of their kit. I'm going to drop some pics that will hopefully shed a little light on how the pulleys and brackets are to be installed. Anyone who decides to take this kit on, please feel free to ask questions and I most certainly will help

Hopefully the pics will bring some clarity on the orientation of all the pulleys and brackets. On to the next thing. Fluid dampner is a nice fit

Had to do some trimming on the front clip to get the trucool 40k to fit along with the gigantic ESS intercooler

Decided to upgrade the blow off valve. Went with this version of The vortech and vented it to the atmosphere. Fog light no longer fits with this guy installed, so keep that in mind. Its an awesome valve though. Works really well

On to the pcv plumbing. So Jannetty steered me in the proper direction here. Cap off the rear driver side valve cover port and the pass side port goes to the suction side of the blower plumbing. The valley cover port will go to the catch can as well as the intake and the intake port line will need a one way check vavlve installed. The L99 does not have a valley cover port, so you would need to swap it to an Ls3 style. I already had done that in the previous GPI build
