Put mine on Wednesday. I think I had to pay a little more going through my local dealer. But well worth it!!

Yea, don't buy this billet one like I did. It was almost $50 with shipping and the o-ring seal wouldn't seal properly. Had to glue foam weather stripping tape to it. It is stout though and won't warp but it must weigh a half pound.

Thats the first step to a turbo set up on your bike. Better keep going, another 4500 dollars and your done.

LOL! Seriously though, I wrote the owner of the company on this. The cover is beautifully machined from billet aluminum and the o-ring seal is elegant, it's a precision made work of art. Problem is, the area of the frame where it seals to is not a precision machined surface required for the o-ring to seal properly. It is a gravity cast section and the surface finish is rough and wavy as I confirmed with a straight edge. You need a thick chunk of foam ruber, 3/8" minimum to seal here. Sometimes Lo-tech is the way to go.
