Hey Kyle you and I have travelled this road before so well just agree to disagree , But misleading is saying this "The O rings included in the supercharger kit are square, not round" and not the fact that I posted pictures.

Just sounds like double talk to me. :/

I'm not quite sure what there is to disagree about. If you're wanting me to say that the groove machined in the casting is round then yes that's correct...That's why it's called an O ring. However the gasket or O ring that goes inside that round channel has a shoulder...which makes it a square O ring...I'm not trying to mislead anyone or "double talk".

Here is a store where you can buy square O rings...

square vs round oring applies to the shape of the o ring cross section, a round o ring is a cirlce a square is molded as a square.

Hope this helps anyone here that might be confused.

The definition on an O-Ring is: "a gasket in the form of a ring with a circular cross section, typically made of pliable material, used to seal connections in pipes, tubes, etc."

Only time will tell if the intercooler failure is an anomaly or a "wear and tear" item. I hope it is not the latter.

Whiddles, did you use de-ionized water? Any other chemicals you put in the water mixture? Just curious, some people put additives to lower the boiling point. Maybe it's causing corrosion???

It has been a long journey so far but I have built my G37 to the point where I have always wanted it to be. Stillen Supercharged

Lots of blood, sweat and tears surround this car, there have been some set backs but nothing that could stop from accomplishing my goals.

Huge thanks to SpeedHunters for this awesome article
