Default Radix people..... please help

ok well i found the problem ....remember couple days ago i could only make like 2PSI boost..turns out the upper half of the radix (blower)has slightly separated from the lower half (manifold/intercooler).

i could shake the top part around and i see some play between the two parts only a few millimeters.

anyone have any ideas pleasssssssssssse i want to fix it myself as i hate other people touching my truck..

guys has anyone taken the radix apart i dont see the bolts holding the two parts together so it must be on the inside.

i appreciatitthanks

It is almost impossible for that to separate. Who did the install? Was your supercharger new or used? Please give me at a call @ 805-642-8833.
