Yours seems to have a bigger problem. Could it be that in is building up heat due to excess friction inside the blower housing and transfering that heat to your discharge air? Liek the tolerances inside the blower are too tight and parts are rubbing and causing the grinding noise you hear?

I didn't see anyone else ask this, but is the coolant pump working? One other guy had his Radix installed, and was getting "whipple-like" performance out of it. Turned out that Magna didn't have a fuse in the pumps harness, so even theough it was all hooked up, it wasn't getting intercooled boost, just hot air.

like tex said, is the pump working, and not just wineing. i was messing with mine the other day and if you wire it backward it will wine but only pump a little, wired properly it pumps alot of fluid.

We are now looking into the blower as having a problem, too close of tolerance will cause too much heat. The blower makes kind of a coffee grinding noise while in boost, which they say it shouldn't. The sales manager ask that I put another 300 miles on the blower, and if it is still making that noise he will send me a new one and RA my old.
