Supercharger problems and Warranty
#31
Harry:
Like RT said they told me the only way to take the tranny out was to lower the motor about
4 inches and in order to do that they had to remove the SC. Believe me if it wasn't necesary
I wouldn't have let the dealer touch it because it also cost me a broken SC bracket !!But
I was lucky it was covered uder Comptechs warranty.

My first to second gear grind got worst after installing SC. I ignored it and contiued driving till it wouldn't go to 6th gear no more , then I knew I had a big problem!!I think adding the extra HP caused the problem . My tranny feels better know and I haven't had the grind problem yet (2500miles after fix).

I think the added hp on it's own is not the problem - but the way the driver responds to the added power in terms of rushed shifts etc. The extra "drag" on the engine may also be a cause since the revs don't fall as fast - affecting shift timing...
