Are you going to dyno when you have a bad blower? Or do you want to get a # before your Rotrex experiment starts. Bad blower lower #. More nay sayer tears. But who cares if they cry.

Will M7 be selling these in the future? I heard talk of it before. Do the vents have a screen or grille of some sort. Post pics when installed. Very nice work Sid.
