Thread: Driving without Supercharger Pulley?

So, the GP is going back to the body shop for two weeks. I was wondering if i can take the supercharger belt off while it's there. I know it's a little neurotic, but the 4000 of damage that it incurred was due to some stupid driving by my roommate.

yes, you can take the belt off. the car still runs and drives its just slower than ****.

Thanks bio,
After the accident that it was just in, i am a little paranoid.

Just unplug the bbv... It will only see 3-5lbs of boost at max and wont run like crap part throttle

Yeah, the body shop called me today...they took it for a test drive to check for mechanical damage, which there is none, and told me at that when they tried to "pass people" they were getting black smoke out the exhaust...something tells me they went joyriding.

well, if my car was at a BODY SHOP, and they called me and said they took it for a ride to do a MECHANICAL check.....i would be picking up the car within the hour.
