Yeah, no doubt about it, this hobby isn't cheap..... I don't even want to count what I've spent on my corvette over the years, I'm afraid it would scare me. On the Superram, of the 4 that I have owned, none have leaked, most that leak is due to improper installation. But, I have heard of the lid leaking on occasion if they do not have the Billet lid. But, even if its not a Billet lead, just use a double gasket on it. In my opinion, the Superram gets a bad rap due to a more difficult installation..... which it is when compared to the 1 piece MR, but its also not hard. Its just that there are more fasteners, thus takes a little extra time. I can personally have a Superram completely mounted in under an hour. The biggest difficulty people have is with the inner plenum belly bolts.... many will slot the fastener so they can cradle on the bottom and pull up through the top with a screwdriver..... which is easy to do. There are other methods you can do with the plenum belly as well, you can PM me if you want to know more about. As a note, on a A-B-A test I did about 4 or 5 years ago, I took of my Superram after running 11.47's back to back with it, put on the Miniram, tuned it up best I could.... ran 11.6x, put the Superram back on went back to the 11.4's...... this was with a 383, AFR, 219, 3k converter..... I'm not banging on the Miniram, I like it and own one, and it can run faster than the Superram, but it needs more converter to do it. Just food for thought.... |
