Wow somebody broke something with the charger on finally

Did you do a hard launch before it happened?

I think thats one of the first 'part fatalities' due to the supercharger.

It might be easiest to replace it with an OEM for the meantime.

Broken as in not functional or just noisy? I have that annoying click noise when I pull in/out , which people say is either normal from the brake clips or signs of an axle problem...

Wow. I am very surprised. There are guys with 400hp Civics/Integras running the stock axles. In fact I have a 99 Accord with 350 hp and I'm running stock axles. Now I know torque is more of a killer on axles but I don't see how 60 more whp and 30-40 more ft/ lbs of tq is going to kill an axle. You sure the boot didn't get slit somehow by something on the road and then the grease shot out?

Im with dtpjigzer- our axles suck. Mine are clicking up a storm! Thinjim is working on getting some high performance axles made, I talked to him about it in june. Thats probably the best place to look for now.
