What? How did you snap that?
It wont be a bolt, it'll be a shaft that goes right through the lower impellor of the charger itself. It'll have a gear on it too, to drive the top impellor.

Probably the opposite way to what this guy did it :lol: :lol: :lol:

But seriously, dude that sucks really. Bad way to write off a supercharger.
