Asked about this in another thread but I wanted to ask you all.

Is this piece 100% mag...100% alum or a combo.

Lower left piece.

It's 100% aluminum. I know because I welded it.

What's the part number on the piece you were asking about? That housing looks much bigger than the regular E55 rear supercharger housing.
