xs-power intercooler warning
This weekend the bracket that holds the ast broke at the weld causing ast hoses to make contact with the eccentric pulley.Luckily I was just pulling into my driveway.

Thanks for the head's up. That bracket does seem awfully flimsy. Guess it's time for me to either reenforce it or mount the ast somewhere else.
