    Hello from the Florida panhandle, I just bought a 98 GTP (pace car trim). 100 miles after I got it, the supercharger started to rattle. it was not the coupler because I replaced it with the zzp green one, so I tore it apart and it ended up being the rear rotor bearings. Since I was going to replace them I made the decision to tear down the snout and rebuild it to, also I went ahead and ported the inlet and outlet of the supercharger case and powdercoat the case and snout cobalt blue, I can post pics if you guys want to see it. anyways just thought I would start off posting in this forum.

    Welcome! Couple people on the forums are in the panhandle as well. I frequent Pensacola (GF attends UWF) and we go to the Ft Walton Beach area/Destin when we get the chance.

    Love to see some pictures of the S/C.

    Here is a few pics of the current progress, keep in mind I still have to do the final polishing on the inlet before I press in the rear rotor bearings.

    Very nice. Did you do the powdercoating or have someone else do it.

    Thanks, I plan to add headers and a fwi at the same time I put this back on. I'm not sure what I want to do after that, I don't think I want to lower the pulley size until I add water/meth injection or an intercooler.
