Here is how the mount looks uncut. I think the bulk of the support is the gusset area as opposed to what was removed. Probanly 2/3rds of the M is missing now on mine.
Also I posted a video of the first start in case you missed it, although the sound is kind of bad it can give you a slight idea. I'll definitely be recording more in the future!

Now I'm a bit confused. I spoke with the Borg Warner guys at their booth at the PRI show in Indy a few months back. I asked them about doing this. They made it seem like It was possible to disable the built in recirculation of the EFR and run a dual port on flanges. It would have to be plumbed like a traditional recirculation setup where it would send the air back into the intake side. It would be like the setups that run full recirc bov but utilize turbos that do not have recirc built in. Either way your method is clearly the better route seeing that you were able to run dual ports with minimal modification. Video looks good! Look forward to more!
