Ratchet, how much for the (EMFACD) externally mounted forced air cooling device shipped to 09033? are you sure i will also need one of these? man this is gonna be a project and a half.

Also since you are a transmission specialist, do you have any of the aforementioned 21+ speed transmission's?

And the last thing you want is to melt a speaker wire, pulling the factory Halon Fire Suppression trigger can get messy... not to mention expensive!

Now, if you insist on the aforementioned mouniting locations let me suggest an externally mounted forced air cooling device....



It could easily be mounted on the roof of the vehicle and might just keep the Flux Cap cool enough to prevent an unfortunate situation.

We have several coolers very similar to the one depicted in the photo in stock and provide custom installation as well. LMK if you are interested!

Just my .02

Has one of these in his shop. He uses it to keep the shop nice and cool....

AG,

Your going to need to either contact 13 Speed Inc or 21 Speed Inc depending on which tranny you intend to use on this project. I would personally go with the 21 Speed Inc package as more has got to be better!

Also, i think that large cooler mounted on the roof of your camaro might cause a little bit of drag so I would suggest a water cooler style trailer that you pull behind the car. Especially since the FC will be rear mounted the water wont have to travel as far.

Contact Madman for some Fab work of the 500 gallon trailer and intercooler!

Sorry to hear about your accident, i believe i will be good to go in my 05 RS though. Anyone else have any ideas on how to mount the cooler?

you guys are all newbs, everyone knows the reason the FC is mounted in the delorean is bc the extra pin on the pcm that attaches to the STOCK 8 SPEED transmission, you have to upgrade you're pcm, and if you go to 6 spd inc, package 14a-15c++ both have the two extra gears available, then thats the only upgrades you require

god damn it, i've never seen anyone so behind in my life, USE THE FREAKING SEARCH BUTTON

Does the ebay unit come with everything to get it working? I mean like wires, fuse box, power amplifier, gamma rays reluctor, electron activation software, and premium mounting hardware? I need to know ASAP! I need one!

Be sure to monitor your temperature once the Flux Capacitor is installed. Don't let it go above 250F on the spread spectrum threshold. I suggest a custom tune with 6-12 pin extension for the pcm that supports additional wiring recomended for the capacitor as well.
