Thread: Quick Supercharger Question

I drilled the button head off of a couple which just left the stud. The nose slid off over the studs and I then used vise grips to get the studs out.

I've impacted torx before, it will eventually snap the bit but I got them out. Security torx are not as strong.

I attempted to remove mine to go ahead and change the coupler while it was off but ended up stripping 3 of them so I said F it. I might just take it by the machine shop and see what they can do.

My gf's dad owns a machine shop, so i may take it there if worst comes to worst. We'll see how some heat does

Yeah, the security torx are twisting just by hand lol

I have some more at home, I'll see how heat or impact goes.

Just worried about the impact damaging the housing or rotors themselves, should be okay right?

Good idea I might just have to try this before I waste money taking it to the machine shop
