The fill for this system is basically a cap on one of the hoses so you really never know how much air is in the system or if it's really full without checking a few times. There are aftermarket tanks which adds a little capacity while also making it easy to ensure it's full with no air bubbles. The pump on this system cavitates and shuts down when air hits. This causes high IATs and timing pull.

The ADM reservoir includes hoses which replace the GM hose that includes the factory bleeder. The reservoir is at the highest point in the system so the setup will "self bleed". This is a necessary upgrade and should have been an OEM piece.

yes...definitely! The newer style has a slightly larger reservoir too and is easier to install. You won't regret it!

Yes, did mine last week and it feels like it did when new again. I definitely felt down on power last few times I drove the car prior to the install.

So with this reservoir installed you never have to worry about air being in the system again?

Every once in a while my car seems like it falls on it's face at WOT so I'm wondering if there is maybe some air trapped in my system that is causing that.

Are you guys finding that this is primarily an issue with the A10's or the 2017 and up model years? I have a 17 ZL1 M6 and curious if this is something I am going to need to address.

Thanks
