    Not really...that is the entire reason for filling the slits in the blower case. They are there stock to keep it quiet. Or for the fact of the larger V. Plus, I bet you got more whine when I moved your intake setup when the intercooler was installed Running the filter closer to the blower = more whine.

    Don't the rotors run over the slits too? How does that work? It has as much contact to the rotors as the blower outlet does for the most part...

    What do you think is hapening to all of those shavings/peices?? Exactly. Inside your engine.
    I think though...that the Epoxy is a way harder, and THICKER material than the rotor coating is by far. Plus, when the rotors begin to lose their coating it doesn't all come off at one it is little by little IMO. Not enough to damage anything...but, a chunk of JB Weld, Epoxy, or even Quiksteel would scare me enough to not do that unless I had a IC to block it incase something did happen.

    Not trying to kill your business on it Parker. I never said it was 100% a bad thing, I just said I personally wouldn't trust it...but again, it is opinion, and that is just how I feel about it ya know?

    Oh, Yah. I see where your comming from man. And I was actually talking about the aluminum that comes from the rotor housing. I've see some pretty scared up housings before. I don't think the coating on the rotors would hurt the engine if it did happen to get in there because of the amount that comes off. Which is not a lot.
