Sad; My P1 ProCharger Grenaded itself!
 
Not sure IF you all know but shortly after I got my ProCharged 300SRT the system Grenaded itself. Today a friend helped me take it out and tear it apart. What a MESS! The Fan assembly is shattered, Gears and bearings. I'll be taking my time and looking and searching for parts. NOT even sure where to start. I'm NOT upset with the previous owner or anything like that; it just HAPPENED! Kind of the price you pay for UPGRADING to some SERIOUS performance @ 643 HP. HOWEVER it was so much FUN with the 643 Horsepower while it lasted ~LOL~ Even a bit SCARY to be HONEST.

Needless to say I have NOT driven the car in weeks. Only started to move in the driveway. I'll get a stock
belt just to start and move if necessary. I do NOT plan on driving the car the way it is. It has too many upgrades; dual fuel pumps, 1/2" gas lines, upgraded injectors and fuel rails etc, etc. And, is Tuned with the predator for the high performance options.


More than likely it'll be MONTHS before I'm able to get it repaired correctly.

Tee has let me drive her 300SRT though so I don't get withdrawal symptoms.

Because of the cost involved in this; it surely won't be for awhile.

Gotta watch buying highly modified vehicles from people you don't know.

Sorry to hear that Jim,however have you checked the engine to make sure it did not injest any of the sharpnel when the charger came apart. Thats why i'm not real keen on superchargers/turbos when they gernade they send all those pieces into the engine/oil system and trash it too.
