    well, the discharge tube has a slight oily coating, not heavy **** like that. Plus, i find it hard to believe, that oil sludge like that could get thru the blow off valve, up, the tubing, make the turn and then end up on the intake elbow.

    Paxton should have gotten the unit today. We'll see what happens.

    Yeah, just thinking through the keyboard. It's hard to diagnose some problems unless you're there. Hopefully paxton can get this straightened out.

    "shipping a 25lb object from nj to cali isn't cheap, especially if you can't wait 4 weeks to get it there and back."
    this is so true and i had to send mine back 3 times!!!!!!!!!! i had to pay all 3 times and they said that they would pay for shipping but would have to wait like 3-4 weeks to have a UPS guy pick it up?? well either way this is how i solved my problem, 1st time it was a mechanical problem, 2nd was a blown seal and the third was another seal... so i over looked a few things and noticed that the oil return line was "U" necked and being that their kits use gravety to have the oil return to the pan, it was backing up into the SCer and blowing out anywhere it can, since ive cut the hose shorter i havent had a single problem with my 1000, ill trade head units with ya though if ya want :)

    Im still waiting. I haven't heard a damn thing about the condition or status even after 3 emails. I will have to start long distance phone calls on my dime now. This whole thing is really starting to piss me off.

    well, paxton played ball. New case, new volute, bearings, seals and impellar. Only thing they didn't replace was the gears.

    lets hope this thing is correct when i get it back.

    Quadcammer, Have you gotten your novi back yet? Mine has begun to leak oil everywhere and I am going to call about mine this week. I got mine back in October and only have around 400 miles on it. I was wondering if the rebuild was successful.

    yeah i recieved it back about 1.5 weeks ago. I have not put it back on the car as the motor is apart, but they replaced almost everything so i hope its ok.

    goodluck with yours.

    fwiw, i only had to pay shipping one way, the rest was covered.

    I called yesterday and got a return #, so I guess I'll pull it tomorrow and ship it off. I live in Florida so any break on shipping will be good. I might as well put the old powerdyne on run some test and tunes because this time of year we get our best air and I can work on fuel and traction.

    i just found out tonight that my 1000 is doing the same thing. i called paxton up and it will be $359 to rebuild it. if i have to rebuild it i'm just going to sell it and then go the NA route. tired of blow by and blower problems. would it be ok to just run it like this. all it is doing is letting oil in the inlet, right?
