psiburr 0 Posted June 15, 2009 I know that a super charger and ducktape should never meet.... but whilst replacing the restrictor I noticed the rubber connecting the air box to it has perished !! It had completely come away over the bottom bolt and split along the red line. I used a larger washer to re-secure the bolt and was left only with a slight gap marked in the picture that a strip of tape has sealed. there was no obvious dirt in the charger and havent noticed and change in noise or performance (could have just happened as I lifted it tonight) soooooo was wondering how much to panic :pale: anyone got a replacement I could buy off them ASAP ?!?!

Supercharged 2 Posted June 16, 2009 Be very careful with tape etc - if it gets sucked in it will be new charger time! I'd just order a new hose from VW, you might find there is also an O ring seal like on the boost return side - another part worth changing to keep the system air tight!
