  1. So, got this setup installed. :)

     

    On the TOB squeal issue, does it sound similar to a loose belt? It only makes the noise with the clutch fully out. If I press the clutch just the tiniest bit it disappears.

     

    ***BREAKING NEWS!***

     

    Just finished up putting on the return spring and bracket. It has cured my tob squeal problems. First of all, Qikslvr, you are the man and if you ever come out to Jersey drinks are on me. Lol

     

    Anyways, I took some pictures of my solution to the problem. Since I had read Qikslvr had some initial fitment issues with his Perrin TMIC (especially the part about removing it and reinstalling it 12 times!) I decided to make an "S" shaped bracket. After drilling the holes, I just loosely bolted it in and stretched the spring to where I felt it would work and marked it with a Sharpie. After the necessary trimming, it went back together and worked the first time! Imagine that! :lol: Now for the pics...

     

    My finger is pointing to the location of the existing bracket in which the new SUPERTOBSQUEALELIMINATOR Bracket will be mounted (bolt already removed...duh) On a side note...if you haven't already zip tied your boost lines, now would be a brilliant time to do so!

    This picture shows the finished height of the bracket...which is a little more than 2 inches high.

    This is the finished length of the bracket...as you can see it is just about 4 inches.

    This is a top view of the installed bracket. Note the spring is not stretched very far at all. On the tip from Qik, I made a trip to Home Depot's storm door section. The spring I used is a 2.5 incher with a 11.5lb safe working load rating. IMO, the clutch felt better after installing the spring on my test drive.

    This final picture just shows the gap between the SUPERTOBSQUEALELIMINATOR Bracket and the fluid line connected to the slave cylinder. This gave the spring great clearance all around and the bracket won't hit my Perrin TMIC.

  2. Qikslvr, I'm going with this setup very soon and I saw you posted Spec includes the TOB in this kit. JSCSpeed told me I have to purchase the TOB separately but the alignment tool is included. Judging by the date on your op maybe this is something Spec changed very recently or has JSCSpeed been mislead? :confused:
