well last time i posted in forced induction ,my main drive gear had melted to my procharger mounting brachet, i finally got it back today from repairs,which was covered by procharger, im told the blades in my blower are chipped up and are actually slightly bending im told there is no air filter on my blower, only a small screen..a place here in louisville called tachyeon.."www.tachyeon.com" recommended to put a turbo type air filter on, they said they'd do it..but it would cost me...anyone run into this problem..theres no space to put one..the only way to make this work is to cut the core composite the blower rests against heres a pic of the space issue...if this needs to be cut...what should i use to do so?....thanks for your help.:note blower REST'S on core compostie

I do think you'll need to cut that support. I've had mine on for 2 years and still only have the mesh over it... the space is so mall it's hard for anything to find it's way in there. Unless you live in a windy/sandy area?

If you do decide to put a filter on the blower, which again, is possible with cutting. then you may want to think about taking the filter that's "in" the piping by the FMIC out... since you won't need 2 filters.

thats a good point..i think when my gear melted it got scrap aluminum all under the engine bay..and possibly in the blower..i beleive this is what caused the damage to the blades in the blower

have you had any problems with yours with mesh only?

Nope. I looked about a year ago and there were some very very small minor nicks. But nothing at all that would make the fans not operate as normal... no bends, just small pits. I'm guessing from unlucky particles that got caught up in WOT high RPM collisions.

well i talked to pro charger, they said its covered on warranty,since our cars cant really have an airfilter on the blower, so i guess im content with that
