So I was right in my thinking that the works blower is so close to the firewall that it may hit when the engine is under torque load?

it did in fact contact the fire wall, but only when in reverse.....go figure. I little friendly persuasion fixes everything.

My unit is a pre production prototype, Chris has since changed the Casting to fix the clearance problems. He has also changed the Boost Bi pass actuator to fix one other little problem I found.
He sent me a new peice that I installed last night, and that should make installing it a lot easier.


New position of boost actuator
