Hey was wondering what some of you procharger guys did with the clearance of the upper radiator hose? It seems that it can work but it will be right up against the blower and procharger inlet plastic pipe, I'm not really liking this. I thought maybe just wrapping some heat shield wrap around the hose and call it a day but I guess would like some other options. Thanks much.

Mine is stock. It touches the head unit but it barely misses my AFM powerpipe. I haven't had any problems in 25k and three years.

Here's an option to consider. A lot of single turbo guys use these kits to gets the rad hoses out and away from the hot bits. It moves it up higher and no need for worrying about heat integrity.

i took some mesh stuff off of another radiator hose and slid it over the upper radiator hose. to act as a buffer between the unit and the hose.
