I was installing some stuff last night, I removed my intake..

There was a loose piece of aluminum in there, this piece came from the 90 degree stillen hose that was used to hook up the bypass on the stock kit. this piece allows the 90 degree bend to stay at a 90.

To say the least, this piece let go, hit my impeller, my impeller blades are f'd...

im hoping I can still get away with driving it that way.. il have some pics up tonight.
What?? That sucks. Are you talking about the 90 from the intake or the 1" bypass spot on the charge pipe?

The 1" rubber hose that goes into the blower coupler and hooks to your bypass.

theres a little metal piece in there to retain the 90 degree, it came loose, hit my impeller

im going to try to clean them up with a dremel tonight.
