OMG so me and Joe had a helllll of an adventure today with my rag eating supercharger and then Joe had a near death experience. I don't have it in me to explain it all now but later I will. Me and Joe actually had to take the s/c apart

We put on my front lip, hooked up the o2 sensor AND then we changed the tranny fluid. However the intake piping was in the way so we took it out and put a rag in the s/c so that no dirt gets in.
We finished the tranny fluid and bolted everything back up forgetting about the rag. We took it for a drive and then as soon as I hit boost...*Bog bog bog bog dead* It turned off and i pulled off to the side of the rode. We then realized we had forgoten the rag. No lie, i was freaking out the whole time not physically, but def. mentally.
At idle the car reved to like 1.5k and woudn't go any lower. I coudn't accelerate so we brought some tools over and went to work. We pulled out the rag and found it to be in shredded. We took out all the piping and found the throttle body butterfly stuck open with pieces of the rag. We removed all of that and got out what we could from the throttle body.
We got the car back to Joes but the revs bounced all over the place by themselves and the car felt like ____. We removed everything again and vaccumed out what we could. Then we removed the battery and took apart the side of the s/c to find the blad and the housing covered in red peices of rag. We vaccumed out everything we could and now its running back to normal. It may be my imagination but I think the revs ar a little high at idle still. When i pull it out of gear they drop to about 900 and then dropp again to about 700-800. But the pull is still there and the noise from the s/c hasn't seemed to change enough to notice a difference.
So we'll see how it all goes.

HELLO TO EVERYONE FROM BRECKENRIDGE, COLORADO!
Hope everyone is doing well.
Denny and Max, sorry I missed your New Years party, hope everyone had a good time.
Serg, Guille, Julian, I received all of your sticker payments and the stickers were shipped on Feb 8th, so I hope to have them soon.
Julian, sucks about the s/c...myb now I can whoop u, lol.
Pete and Joe, it's going down
Jason, I hope my tC is clean when I get back.
It's really FUKIN COLD UP HERE!!! but with all the thermal stuff we bought, it feels like we're in Miami. It was mine and Yasi's first time seeing snow, and it's freakin amazing. The cabin we're staying in has 3 floors, and its beautiful. I will post pics as soon as I get back. We actually got snowed in the first day we got here....there was an avalanche that happened on I70, so they blocked off the road so we slept in the van in a gasoline station along with like 20 other cars. there was no other route to get there, this was the only road that we were able to take since it goes up into a mountain, but by 10am the next morning it cleared. We ended up going to a nearby bar at 8am and played pool and drank beer....it was my first time drinking beer with breakfast, lol. Went snowboarding yesterday...had an awesome time, but Yasi sprained her ankle. She's good tho, i'm taking care of her. We gotta plan a trip like this with all of us soon guys! it's an amazing experience. fashooo
see you guys on wednesday.

^dude, that is fukin gross.
good to hear all is well bro. sucks to hear about yasi. would that be karma or just an accident? i know shes a strong believer in karma. lol.
cant wait to see the pics. and your car is clean... it rained yesterday. lol. no seriously tho, i didnt cover it because your car is dirty and you should only cover it when its freshly washed cuz it can scratch it up completely if it's not all clean. and i couldnt wash it cuz you left last week and i worked 40 hours in 2 days so i didnt have time. dont worry tho, i washed mine a few minutes ago so yours looks better parked next to mine.

I got a nice shiny shortblock in the mail yesterday. It was about dam time it arrived, lmao.
Only thing i'll be installing this week is a grounding kit.
Still loving the cf hood *roar*
I was doing 80mph, and it was definitely moving enough to warrant the hood pin install. Its scary lol.
