Goodbye..

.. to the supercharger. Finished this shit at 4AM this morning. I was at Speed Industry since 4PM last night (and every day this week, but starting last Friday).









Fabricating the downpipe.






Yeah, I still need to get a reducing elbow silicone coupling so I can hook up an air filter.








The rusty metal coolant hose is leaking where it goes into the plastic housing. I don't think it's in straight, or the o-ring is crooked, etc. What a bitch. Spews/sprays coolant, causing air leaks in the system and making me run hotter than I should. Gotta get it fixed before I can tune anything at higher throttle.




EDIT: I know what to do about the BOV.
Original: The BOV doesn't seem to be working, all I hear is compressor surge no matter what looseness/tightness I do with the nut.

My throttle body's throttle plate or something is sticking. Throttle gets stuck at like 10% until I move it with my hand like 2 millimeters to the stopper it's supposed to hit when the cable's relieved of its tension. Lame. I lubed the shit out of the rotating piece and spring where the cable connects. Doesn't seem to really help that much. Probably need a new 62mm throttle body.

And of course I have to fix that stupid ass coolant line so I quit running so hot.

So far it sounds effing awesome. The spooling sound occurs like all the time. Once I fix that coolant line and get the tune dialed in, I'll be able to get some video for you guys.
