Default The Radix is fixed

everything went so smooth infact it was a snap,only five bolts holding the manifold/intercooler to the rest of the blower then just remove intercooler....rite above intercooler is six bolts 3 on each side holding the top part of the radix (rotating assembly)to the lower part(intercooler/manifold) all those bolts backed out over time i guess... anyway i just torqed them dawn with alot of thread locker added some RTV and put the whole thing back together and thats it took about 2-3 hours.

thanks to everyone also thanks to blownchevy from Magnacharger for offering to help me out but i decided to do it myself im glad i did but thanks anyway

Very good. I must have missed some previous posts. I assume you were missing some boost, correct?

glad it was a simple thing and not a damaged Radix.

Congrats, now go out and work hard at backing those bolts out again
