You know, that is a good question and one I forgot to ask. I shall give them a call today.

I sure hope I don't have to add any more auxiliary circuits.

I thought my addons accessory addiction was bad, you have gone off the deep end. I have thoughts and plans of going the @F0rdc0wb0y route as seen here: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...l#post19133499

Although, I was lucky enough to remove an accessory this winter instead of adding.

I did a version of the FordCowboy remote fuse block. Mounting it above the glove box is a PIA...if you don't have the Ford bracket. When it warms up we will have to get Noob's wiring straightened up.

Those aren't accessories. They're essential primary systems. *ahem*

Yeah I know. That's the trouble with electrical additions that come months or even years apart. This is already somewhat cleaned up. You should have seen it before.

Pushing borg to honer warrentee is a very reasonable thing to do.
I dont know that it would be unethical, but might not be the right choice when requesting a warranty. However when push comes to shove the company might want to know that you are part of a large community of truck owners that purchase their products. It might sway them to do the right thing.

They are real easy to rebuild. Did the compressor wheel have any damage?

Well, @BA86f250 ’s question was specific to the ball bearing version I think. I haven’t taken the S366 apart yet while I try my luck at getting a warranty replacement.

I did, but I was privy to the "event" or "outburst", so I kept in the corner of the bar raising my IPA up once in a while.

Anxious to hear more about your impression of the new setup.

I did sir. But didn’t find anything abnormal about your auxiliary BOV. Pretty common occurrence in my truck too.
