driving n/a after removing s/c
driving n/a after removing s/c i think im going to sell the procharger to quiet the car down and swap to turbo. can i safely drive the car n/a after removing the supercharger. i dont plan on driving it far just 10 miles back and forth to work.
Yep, if anything it will just be pretty rich driving NA. The great thing about turbos over superchargers is you can't tell right away that they are more than a H/C setup. My car, you pull up, and it is screaming, everyone knows. A turbo, can't tell. On your slip issue, which tensioner do you have?
i dont have a slipping issue. its the belt is actually rubbing against the prochargers bracket, now that i removed the power steering assembly
and yeah about the now knowing when i pull up. is better being im in CA and sitting at a light with a cop next to me gets pretty nerve wrcking

Thats not right, sounds like your crank pulley is misaligned with the blower/bracket. I hear ya though, turbos are the best street cars, and arguably track cars too. Hookage from a roll and sick power.
after removing the power steering pump it totally routes different. i saw on EPP's page they made a bracket to relocate the tensioner to make it not hit. my choices are to either relocate the blower up top or go turbo and not worry about belts anymore

^^ I hear ya, I'm on both sides about it. I love my torque and I don't want to spend the money to make it a turbo so I'm good on the S/C.
Haha, true. Didn't work on the last guy though, 05 GT tries to mess with me on the highway. Gave it a little blip, let him here the psshhh of the BOV, he keeps going. Put it in 3rd, BOV is screaming wide open, still keeps trying, he took off, not letting that happen, 3 bus lengths in a few seconds lol. He did stay back after that though, good thing too because I split the plenum on that run.
