First, please read my previous post (ignore the ignorant arguing and focus on the direct points):

I now feel obligated to explain to everyone why this thread was started. I really did not want to release this information to the public but here goes:
We maybe had 5 or 6 dyno pulls on my car.
During a couple of the pulls we witnessed very strange noises.
There were a few people that heard the noises also including Pete,Joe @ Mustang Magic and SVTP Member "Snipizo". We just didnt think anything of it at the time.
As soon as I pulled out of MM I noticed the noise and the driveablility issue. On the way home from the shop after the 4#lower install and tune my blower started to make an extremely loud/high pitched screetching noise. I drove home normally and started it up the next day. At idle it immediately istarted making a loud mettalic clanking and rubbing. I put my hand on the blower casing and it was shaking and vibrating. (Almost felt like something was rubbing together inside) It turns out that quite possibly heat and overspinning caused pre-mature failure of my ported eaton.
Yes, you guys heard me correctly. My blower took a complete shit.
I need to talk to Gene Fine @ Apten to discuss whats going on with the situation but I am almost positive it was a combo of heat and over-spin. The blower did not seize up up completely, it still rotates and will allow me to get to the shop on my own power. It makes a small amount of boost at low rpms and as far as im concerned there is no damage to the intercooler...hopefully.
There is alot of options I am considering right now but besides that I am really: :xpl:
