Re: Just ordered Macboost stage 2

Thanks for the order! The install is pretty straight forward. The intercooler install instructions are available for download on the IC product page, same with the prop install. Take a look there and you can get an idea of what is involved. The main thing to do is to take your time. Take care to not cross thread the phillips screws that hold the velocity stacks on in the sub airbox. If you have any questions, I'm here!

Re: Just ordered Macboost stage 2

Cool thx mac. I'm not really too worried about the chip and the intercooler. It's the prop that's bugging me lol. I installed a Solas concord on fx 140 and that was hell!

Re: Just ordered Macboost stage 2

impellers arent hard, just remember which bolts you pull out and where they go back in, otherwise its not hard....do you have the tool or does the kit come with one?

Re: Just ordered Macboost stage 2

I have my old tool for the fx 140 prop that I installed a while back. Not too sure if it will work. Idk if the kit comes with the tool. I hope it does!

Use some windex (glass cleaner) on the boost hose.....makes installing the boost hose easier.
