It looks better than the cast finish of the volute and matches the piping, but I'm not 100% if I'm going to keep it like this or not.

Loving the black charger, very stealthy.

And that thing you chopped off looks like a heat sink?

It is a heat soak for something mine gets very hot sometimes but never worked out for what.
Jim it used to do something before you put it in it coffin lol
