Who are you dealing with at sprintex? FYI all rights in North America are now owned by Innovate Motorsports. I recommend if you are in North America you deal with Innovate Motorsports since they are the ones doing all the tuning updates for Diablo (I know Jon is the one actually doing the tunes) and Hypertech.

Mine just blew up :-(

Looks like a bearing went out. I just hope no metal fragments, impellers or other foreign objects flew into the engine.

It sounds like it's grinding rocks.

Bad news! Sorry to hear that, crossing my fingers for you not to have engine damage!! Get some sprintex warranty going ASAP!

I'm really looking into getting a sprintex supercharger and would like to know how they are compared to the ripp, I don't like the sound of the ripp and love the screw sound

AEV or RIPP. The sprintex price was tempting for me but they just dont run 100%. I would love the ripp if it wasnt so loud and AEV is hella pricey!! If sprintex does come out with a intercooler, tuning will probably be spot on. Im waiting over the winter to see what happens.
