i've seen it happen too. i dont think its even heat related, but the vacuum formed at higher CFM levels.

That's why I buy filters MADE IN THE USA.

The air filters are NOT Chinese made Ebay ricer filters you can buy for $10.00

^^^
what he said.

There are not any cheapo short cuts on this kit, everything is the highest quality of what was available to us.

We didn't try to save buck here and there by buying something that was good enough. We bought the best part for the job period, and that is another reason why the kit costs what it costs.

I know it was probably customer choice, and I thought I also read it somewhere where they are waiting for the motor to blow...
I still don't understand this concept. Chances are you can sell the motor and then you can quit wasting time and already have your setup.
