No one probably has this installed.....but it looks like a decent radiator hose....I tried to get the link but when I pull it up on there website it opens up into a smaller page with no Http address


Here is the website address to Blitz North America
http://www.blitz-na.com/product.html

Go to "Products"
Then "Engine"
Then click on "Cooling performer"

It even has a bung to tap for a water temp gauge too

That's alot for a hose, but I do like the idea of the tap for a temperature gauge sensor. I think that's a must for these cars that only have an idiot light.

scionracerxb

is this it?



it doesn't say exactly what it does?

dinkjs

YEa thats it bro thanks.......it replaces the upper radiator hose.....

Cheif_Thundercloud

I found this while surfing too. It cant hurt

I also found this

Blitz induction cover.

Anyone have any info on these products?

dinkjs

All that is....is a ocver that replaces the stock one so it allows more air into a stock unit

I've seen it advertised for $90 which I agree is a lot for a hose, even a pretty silicone one.

I also like the idea of a water temp gauge to supplement the idiot light. Someone on echofans.net (look for DIY section) said he used the coolant drain plug on the engine block though the upper cooling hose seems a lot more convenient!

it is just a radiator hose made of a better silicone matterial to keep the coolants cooler. i plan on switching my radiator hose for a better one i will get this one and see. blitz does have a really good rep, so i see no problems. 115.00 is expensive but if it keeps the engine cooler i will give it a try

dinkjs

It actually looks like Samco makes the hose and Blitz just rebadged it with there name on it....but ya never know

HotBox

i would too and if it helps from the fan going off all the time id diffinately give it a try

GruntStyle

that is one of the key things i am going to do to the engine (cool it down) i plan on useing red line waterwetter, cooler radiator hose, intake sleeve, header wrap anything and everything that will help to cool down the engine. i want to see if that helps in performance as well as the problems that people have with the fan and stuff.

dinkjs

What is wrong with the OEM fan? Hey maybe we will all get lucky and FAL will make us a upgraded fan?

GruntStyle

i think it just comes on alot robbing the scion of horsepower, i think because it thinks the engine is too hot.

dinkjs

Does the xB only come with one fan???? or does it have 2????

Cheif_Thundercloud

A flex fan should help no?

GruntStyle

i think an aftermarket fan would help too, but only way to find out is to find one and install it.

dinkjs

If there was one made for us yea defently that would help

HotBox

hope so why dont we all send emails to FAL
bugging them to make one for us how does that sound?

dinkjs

But like i asked before....does the xB come with one fan or 2?
