Paxton SUCKS!!

Alright this is the second time this thing has taken a dump on me and I don't really want to deal with it again. The blower has maybe 6k miles on it since it was rebuilt last time and 4 oil changes in that 6k mile time. I also added a larger B&M cooler so I know I did everything I was suppost too.

Does anyone that has experiance with paxton have some advise on how I should handle this? Has a bracket been made for the NOVI yet? maybe I could get credit on one?

I do like having the supercharger it adds class to the car. I just feel like I got a $3000 chunk bit out of my *** !!

Any advise is appriciated.

Fight it like I did man. I had mine rebuilt about as far apart as I did when I had one. I called them and they eventually replaced my unit free. I then sold it and bought my vortech. Never looked back.

It is actually a pretty common occurance to see the paxton **** like that.

They dont make Novi brackets for our cars.

Sell it and get a procharger or a vortech.
