Stage 2+ -- Thanks Ray!

Ray at Turbo Tek Tuning (with help from Ryan and Ed from Car Optics) installed my Perrin FMIC and COBB DP, and tuned my 05 STi. Car pulls harder now and has a much longer powerband.

Ray, thanks for the great tune and for dealing with all my questions! Ryan and Ed, thanks for helping with the installs and clean bumper trimming!

Coolant Overflow Tank Leaking

Ray,

I noticed a leak coming out of the outlet connection on the Perrin Coolant Overflow Tank that came with the FMIC. Is this something to be concerned about, or expected due to the higher boost I'm running now? Should I just tighten the threaded connection and not worry about it?

Ya, sorry about the mix up. Perrin's instructions refer to it as a catch can at the beginning.

Anyway, is it even necessary to tighten the connection, or is a little leaking from the output expected?

It looked it it was coming out of the output connection on top of the tank. I'll check it out during lunch today, see if I can tighten any of those threaded connections.

If it were just overflow, where would it be coming from?
