I got caught with my pants down!
 

This kind of sucks. When I first installed my supercharger it had the "wandering idle", but it went away. Recently it came back and I did not have time to mess with the Tps or mixture screws. So I just unhooked my belt to the blower(powerdynes run w/o the belt). Today, I'm driving on the freeway and a 90's something Corvette pulls up against me. The redneck looking driver smiles over and starts revving. Great! I thought. No blower, I'm toast. SO I tried anyway, I floored it, pulled out of fifth and dropped it in forth and let the clutch fly. I slingshot ahead of him then he slowly reels me in. Knowing i was beat, I rolled down my window and yell to him my supercharger is broken. He just smiles and drives away. The funny thing is, I almost beat him. Then I look down and see I left my AC on the whole time! http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/redface.gif Man, do I feel dumb. Moral of the story, "Don't leave home without your superchargers"!

Damn that sucks! Gotta get that thing tuned and dialed in. Then a few more mods so it runs stronger all motor too!

I just got the NOS going today. I'm addicted!

if you had turned off the a/c you would have taken him. if you had the blower, you would have destroyed him. stupid chevy.

Doesn't the compressor disengage at WOT? It did on my T/A.

I bet u will never let that happen again.

Yeah I know how you feel man, but don't worry about it--here's why:

Next time he sees you (hopefully when he's w/ his girl and in front of a lot of people showing off), talk trash and tell him how you could've easily beaten him if you wanted to (don't go into all the detail) and he'll want to utterly embarass you, but will get splattered--simple.
Or you could just blow his ******* doors off next time you see him.

That totally sucks - I can almost feel your pain. Skyman - how's the NOS? Which kit did you get? I'm starting to lean toward "the juice" - is it better than you anticipated?

Yes exgmguy. The A/C shuts compressor disengages for 10 seconds at WOT. Sorry smoked chevy, but the A/C wouldn't have helped. Hope u find him when you have that beast tuned.
