Powerdyne is THE WORST/CHEAPEST piece of sh&t supercharger for fox bodies. Paxton SN units are a REAL CLOSE second to them. Was the unit the reason for your idle problems all along?

It's under warranty but let Me guess, You get to remove it box it and pay for shipping, then wait for it to come back, hope they cover whatever broke 100%, and reinstall it. After that You will constantly be thinking it is going to break again, and spinning it any harder is pretty much out of the question. Hope it ends up working out for You.

Heh, I've had my SN2000 rebuilt twice already. I've only had about 5000 miles total on it as well.
When it starts sounding like an S-Trim on idle, I know it's "hit the fan." I'd say the SN series is either worse or a tie for 1st place on the crappiest SC's.
Craig at Paradise Wheels did both rebuilds.
