BIG problem.

I noticed considerable amount of lag in my supercharger this morning, so I decided to investigate. I pulled off my turbo manifold and found a peice of an apex seal in the compressor housing. Someone told me that they think I blew a crankshaft valve. Has anyone here experienced this?

And no, I'm not stupid. I already tried flicking the solenoid switch.

Evidently not enough. I just noticed that my muffler tip gaskets are leaking. Maybe that's why the car's been slow lately.

Don't you know a superturbo when you see one? I think the wiring was wrong. I just changed the wires. I had some spare speaker wire.

Apex seals? Crank valves? One of them exsits, non of them pertain to an SVX.

Do you think MAACO is trying to rip me off? They say I need new crankshaft valves, along with a new clutch drum. Should I just forget about this transmission and buy a street ported JDM tranny? They come with new clutch drums.

Now I know your screwing with us. May be it's a Canadian thing? Or maybe you are on good drugs.
