Somebody may coorect me but Hell Fire. Could they not cut any more out (NOT).
I`d say that was Full blend plus.
I`m amazed you can get the O-Ring seal to actually seal with the amount removed.
Meself, I`de say that was over the top and those legs on the output must be fairly weak
with the amount removed.
Mines supposedly PSD full blend and i wouldn`t want to remove any more than it is at.

yes it looks like more porting than my PSD full blend was.  I suspect it's just been done by a random person than a company.  Do you know who owned the charger before you?

I got it with the engine bout 2years ago for a guy in scotland. i was told it was rebuilt 6th months befor and it look pritty clean, and when i took it appart all the bearings an seals where good. just thought it was bout time it had a service.
I was thinking it was a diy job.
That was the very reason i rebuilt it, excess porting. The side of the oil way blew out and filled every thing with oil!!!
Im an engineer so i sleved and welded the oil line and then just cleaned and smothed it out at work.
im putting the charger back on at the weekend and hope all is good!

I'd say 300 off boost, then build the boost up... not a hard and fast rule though.
