Default Clocking a prochager unit

Is it posible to clock a procharger unit like a turbo? I wanted to make a custom FMIC with the air filter where the battery sits. And also have the outlet from the blower got towards the drivers side into an intercooler. Is this possible?

Yes it is, you can rotate the unit. Bob

Bob, any chance you make a FMIC that will relocate the filter to where the battery is for a D!SC kit?

No we don't, we keep the air filter underneath. You might want to consider keeping the filter out of the engine bay to keep it away from engine heat. Bob

The only reason I am looking to move the filter is because I had a problem with water + low filter = hydrolock.

Dang, I've never seen that happen with one of these kits! That must of been some deep water! I'd try to isolate the filter from the engine heat when you relocate it, if you can. Bob
