Angry Who knows bugpack28

He just sold me a POS Whipple Supercharger that he claimed was like brand new.
Yet the rotors are shot on it,and must be replaced. Happiness is short lived .

I know him, I know him!!! Ohhh look here I am. Just looked at the pictures Yellow fever. Everyone should hear the whole story before you start bashing me. The long long story... Just so happens, I wanted to go with a twin turbo setup with my car and 5.4 setup and an auto(friends cars getting wayy faster than mine)(2002 vette 408 iron block 400 shot 2 stage). So I started selling all of my parts. Yellowfever was interested in my whipple. He had his friend come look out here, that lived in my area and not in Canada like himself. Friend ok'ed the supercharger said it was in "great shape". Sent it out, yellow fever was pissed to look at the supercharger. The rotor blades had micro scratches on the very veryyy tips of the rotor blades. He now demands a complete refund. Talked to two local shops to see what they had to say, showed them the pictures vie e-mail. Both shops said it would never affect the performance of the supercharger. Tonight I also sent an email to whipple with the pictures attached, I will keep you posted on what they say... Furthermore; the setup I had put down 622 rwhp and 614rwtq on pump gas and 17psi at 11.2 afr acros the board and 18 degrees of timing. But yellow fever wants a full refund because the whipple is "junk". IMO look out for for Yellow Fever as buyer. And to add to that point one more minor detail I agreed to $2400 shipped because Yellow Fever said when he sent his supercharger from canada to my area it was only 55 dollars to ship. So I said "ok" thinking $2345.00 final price after shipping not bad... Guess what, it just happend to be $16X dollars to ship. More than a hundred more than his stated price. Real Nice.

Hey retard... Those signs of wear are normal for any PD blower... It will produce boost just fine, and make some great power on your cobra. So quit your bitching. You bought a used supercharger... Rotors don't JUST GET SHOT from nothing... They are merely scored on the tips of the "screw" edges. That is very normal wear... Later...
