well Sam should have the carb test car in his shop as we speak. But we all know that once you start dealing with the big bad goverment things start to drag on and on. And we all know that the SC development for these cars has done that without them involved.

I just blew a seal on the supercharger!!

First time on the track since installing it and on my first session as well. It's now a big paperweight and hopefully no metal chunks went anywhere else.

I hope Stillen will expedite a new one to me first thing Monday so I can get it up and running for the following weekend.

By driving it.....half throttle and short shifting the whole session

Q8y_drifter 10-16-2010 10:08 AM

which seal? did you overheat anything?

Pat@SMM 10-16-2010 10:21 AM

I'm thinking it's the seal on the back near the pulley.
Wasn't even close to being overheated......It's cold here right now and I was babying it since it was the first session of the day and the R7 tune only allows me to go go half throttle anyhow.

Good thing you're still covered under warranty

Is there a warranty? They havnt really said for sure what the warranty is

Pat@SMM 10-16-2010 10:41 AM

I think if all of the fluid decides to exit the supercharger then they should replace it without any issues. I've only put on a couple of thousand miles since installing it anyhow.

You used one of stillens eight tunes?

Pat@SMM 10-16-2010 10:56 AM

Tune r7. At least it stopped throwing misfire codes with this one

you're under warranty for sure! I believe you got the carb kit and that has manufacture warranty for 1 year for on the hardware. I had my blower replaced once also and Stillen did not give me any crap about it or asked questions.

We have been in contact with the insurance/warranty company and it looks like we will be able to offer the 3 year/36,000 mile engine warranty on this kit as well. We have a tentative, yes, on the warranty but we don't have the final confirmation yet. We should have that soon.

THe 3 year is the optional warranty after carb approves the kit

Are you sure the installer replaced the sealed shipping oil plug with the vented one?
