I have a question about step 60.

Does anyone have info on what parts I may need? Anyone have pics? Or do I just make that end work as long as it fits on the ****** at the bottom of the intake tube?


I also have a PCV question. What are other people running and where?

Call Roe Racing?

 

[mgeorge]

or chuck Tator, he's installed a bunch of roe s/c's over the years...914-736-3136

What good is a forum if that's the answers to choose from?


Yes. I've read the instructions and they do have the contact info.

I was hoping for more from someone who could say "Yes. I know I did this to mine." Or. "Here. I've uploaded a picture of my set up."

But thanks anyway I'll use that as a last resort. I've got plenty of other steps to do in the meantime.

I guess I could post over there as well. I forgot I was a member there.

Looks like I will have to call ROE anyway. The air intake system that came with it was designed for 70mm throttle bodies. I'll either sell it and go stock or buy some 70mm TB's.

 

[EllowViper]

You mean the tube/hose connection from the airbox to the throttle bodies? THe ROE intake tubes use whatever throttle bodies you have....stock or larger. Many folks put larger (3") connections from the airbox to the throttle bodies. This is no big deal. You can get silicon connectors of all sorts of sizes to connect the throttle body to whatever size piping you are using to the airbox.

If it is smooth tubes you need, I have a couple of sets. On for the stock TBs and a second for the 70mm TBs. PM me

 

[DanB]

I have the smooth tubes figured out. They came with a different intake set up that I will be using.

What I need to know is what happens to the plug and line in this pictures.

It is my understanding the one with the smaller rubber 90 degree boot gets adapted to fit the ****** on the bottom of the drivers side longer ROE long tube. There is also the long plastic tube that doesn't go anywhere?

****** can be seen here at the bottom of the black intake tube.

There is also a crossover tube that goes from the right and left valve covers and is left with a unused opening as seen in this picture. What is done with this?

After rereading the instructions perhaps I am missing the adapter fitting?

Do I cut the hard plastic line and attach it along with the 90 degree rubber fitting.

Looks like I may have to call ROE for clarification.

I like your car. I too have a Roe supercharger...but I would never post pics without first polishing it.

 

[DanB]

What year is yours?

Is it possible to take pics or look at the area I have in question to see what they did?

I'm kind of stumped as to what it should look like there.

Do you have the stock airbox?

 

[Free2go]

P.m. Ellowviper if you have any questions on the Roe.

 

[EllowViper]

A couple of things.
1. The tube that goes nowhere and the one with the rubber elbow can be clipped, run together with an adapter, and plumbed to the small vacuum port under the ROE tube just behind that driver's side throttle body. That way, you get vacuum for the charcoal filter/evaporation system for the fuel tank...which is what these two lines are for.
2. The larger tube that connects the two valve cover ports...you have a couple of options. Some replumb to a 'catch can' and vent to the atmosphere. Others just run a line back to the intake filter port where it originally would have been connected. What I did was vent to a catch can and then run a line from the catch can back to the driver's side port on the airbox (where the original line would have originated). That way, you maintain positive crankcase ventilation while not ingesting valve cover oil & vapor back into the intake system. Ah the joys of aftermarket options and ideas.

 

[DanB]

Thanks

That is the info I was looking for. I will snap a picture of the aftermarket intake I will be running.

 

[DanB]

It's been over a year and I still haven't found where/how to put these hoses.

Does anyone have pics of their set-up?

I'll look harder for the small vacuum port under the ROE tube.

As for venting I don't have the stock airbox. I have elbows that lead to dual K&N filters. That's it. No air box to plumb into.

DanBJust read this post.I recently installed my Roe. Are you still having problems? If so I would be happy to try and help!

 

[TalonTSi90]

That's it. No air box to plumb into.

Well, then you have hot air sucking in.
