Hey guys I've had my vortech on for about 2 months now and owned my car for roughly 10k miles. I've got 51,k on thier now but I want to do some maintenance

WHat should I have replaced / checked now?

Can someone ive me a list of things to do please? I'm taking my car to mechanic 2mrw and want him to do what i say lol

I did a search but found Vague info lol. please help someone

 

also maintence or things to change check for jst the engine or what not.
I'd like to change trans fluid - what performance brand # is thier?
What else? particular coolant?
anyone know where i can pickup that custom intake tube for the vortech kit? what bout stock /clutch flywheel? should that be replaced ASAP cuz of mileage< i know cuz of FI lol

 

I really hate bugging them all the time but Booger and Sentry65 are the Vortech guru's around here. I know there are others but I'm always greatful when thye chime in with some helping knowledge. I would recomend to stay fluent with your oil changes and check your belts for wear and tear from time to time. Make sure oil levels are always good. I know I might do it too often but I change my air filter every 3 or 4 weeks.

 

I'd just do the normal maintenance stuff. The only additional thing you need to keep a closer eye on really is the belt. Otherwise make sure you change the oil every 3000 miles AT LEAST since that's what the supercharger requires. Every 2000 miles is probably a better rule of thumb - and check oil levels every few weeks at least and add oil as needed.

none of us know what you've changed last - spark plugs, fluids, etc, but I'd change the transmission fluid if you've never done so. Most people use redline oil in the tranny

if you change coolant, I recommend honda coolant since it's specifically designed for aluminum engines, where most other coolant is more of a generic type for all types of engines


if the stock clutch is working fine, then no need to replace it unless you want a lighter weight one that revs up faster and possibly slightly harder to drive

 

by revvin up faster with another clutch, id need a lightweight flywheel combo obviously right? anywho any estimate on how much of a dif itcould make 1/4 wise?

 

yeah i should have made that more clear, you need a lighter flywheel to rev up faster.

the flywheel at best will make maybe around .1-.15 second faster in the 1/4 mile depending on which one you get is my guess

 

clean the return line plug at oil change, check oil, check belts
