Yah dude, check that thing. It might look like its ok, but inside it has a step up in the boot to direct the air into the blower. its only has a 3/4" -1" clearance inside that boot. if that thing is collapsing, youll get low boost. Also when your in there, theres a AC line right under your blower, it rubbed a 1/4" mark into the volute on my blower. Cut some 5/8" hose in half, wrap the ac line with it and zip tie it.

Thanks for the clarification! A/C lines were taken care of from previous stillen G3 installation. I appreciate the help form everyone!

Also, I meant blower.. Not turbo.. still new to the world of superchargers.
