You know what guys, I just realized..

The stock idler pulley on the supercharger side, the one that tensions up your supercharger belt, this pulley would work perfect. I have one laying around because I changed mine to a 3"

My car has been nothing of a headache.

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.

Talk about bad luck with that one. Sorry to hear that. Just another reason to get rid of the recerc stuff and go air to air.

I agree. The impeller balance is critical. Arbitrarily grinding it to smooth it will throw it out of balance. Send it Vortech for repair.

I thought you ditched the sc coupler and went with a 3" intake in front of the wheel well.

I do have the intake in the wheel well, I reused that stillen 90 degree to rec back into intake pipe.

Im kinda f'd, my dyno tune is on the 24th. and I wont see speciality z back until next year...

Vortech said 4 week turn around.

I don't trust anyone besides vortech touching this thing.

I might just leave it, maybe it will be ok.. ill post pics in a few hours.

if not, my car is down for a whole year.. again.
