Thanks for the feedback. I'll call them today. I understand they make one for the GT500 too, which I also need.

Thanks BlackICE,
Glad to hear that our unit is working great for you. Shadowman and the GT Guys have been installing a quite a few too so there should be some others offering more feedback I'm sure. :thumbsup

Here are a couple of photos of our unit installed along with our transaxle breather for those that requested it.

I picked mine up via Shadowman around the last Rally time frame. Installation took ~ 20 minutes.... Look like it should have came with the car to begin with.
Great piece made to fit the FGT!
Thanks Evan and Shadowman
Here is another Vote for the Guyett Performance separator, I installed mine at the track during the Rally. Here are the results after 1500 miles.
2.1 OZ in the plastic cup is what came out. I much prefer it in the separator rather then in my intake tube.

After installation, has anyone ran any type of cleaner to get rid of the build up created prior to having the separator.
I have a system to run a commercial cleaner directly in to the port in the intake. Just want to make sure there is no chance of damaging anything if I do so.

Hey Jeff
Not sure if I would do that. The oil that get sucked in normally collects in little drain pan type area and drains back to the heads or back into the drain pan.
If you use a solvent it could to get into your oil system. I cleaned my intercooler coil by spraying the intercooler fins directly with CRC lectra motive no residue, high evap rate cleaner. It was evaporates before it gets to the bottom on the intercooler. Of course the blower needs to be off for this. If you pull the blower to change the oil that is a good time..or if you suck up some filter bits like what happened to me !! There is a picture somewhere of the oil drain return so you can see what I am talking about,, B.

Hi MAD IN NC and Lorenzo, I'm very pleased to hear that our units are working great for both of you guys :thumbsup I completely agree with Stormcat, the intake has a drainback and I would also not advise putting anything in the way of a solvent into the intake and contaminating the oil. As stated, if you are removing the supercharger, than CRC parts cleaner or Lectra-Motive and a clean towel work well for wiping off the inlet, discharge, and I/C core; otherwise, just install the separator and in time that residual oil will move thru. Let me know if you have any questions.:thumbsup
Just wanted to chime in with another 'me too' endorsement of the Guyett Performance oil separator. I got it earlier this week and after marveling at the build quality and attention to details to make it look OEM, figured I'd install it this weekend.
Nope, last night I read the instructions and looked at the pictures for about 10 minutes, walked out to the garage to look in the engine bay and check location, threads etc. Really just wanted to see if I needed to pick up anything on the way home from work so I could to the install.....5 minutes later it was installed. Done. It really is an OEM fit and look. Right down to the hose clamps and finish.
Thanks for a very nicely detailed and well constructed item that 'disappears' so well and was so easy to install.

Guyett Air-Oil Seperator for the Heffner TT
Gentlemen,
There is currently no Guyett oil seperator kit available for the Heffner TTGT but that is about to change. After last weekend's Mojave event I took my car to Guyett in Fresno and left it so they could prototype a system optimized for our TT's. It will be available for sale soon. Cheers.
