SL55 supercharger clutch bearing :(
My engine was making a little more noise than usual, so I popped the hood to find this: http://imgur.com/UkmmDOH
Well crap. Could anyone point me to a replacement bearing? Is this an opportunity to do any performance upgrades, too?
Thanks, all.
Happy new year!

Go for a true Japanese bearing not a china knock off. You can buy a smaller pulley, more power, for around $400, VR speed and Eurocharged have them.
A replacement pulley from MB is $1400
