Anyone have any pics of this boat from under the hatch? Or is it top secret? This is the best I found. It looks like the blower is set way back.

For instance, the motors in post 1 look like the blower is set farther back on the intercooler than the bud engines are. Maybe it is just an illusion. Just curious.

Re: rio roses pics

They are custom built intercoolers....and PSi discharges air in a way that it needs to be redirected for proper management...so someone might be trying to accomodate this issue...nobody knows who builds his kilo motors???....

I dunno, it must be a reflection or something from the intercooler case that makes it look like the blower is offset back.
