Hope there isn't too much damage, if any!

Things just got real. PULLEY FELL OFF.
I just flew in from Italy last night, go to drive car to get scanned to take care of another problem of battery control module or voltage regulator and pulley falls off on the way.
It has been on for many thousands of miles so wasn't a recent install gone wrong. The pulley was installed at the same place where gaspam had his done (which also fell off not to long ago after many miles) just outside of ATL called Malones.
I am in disbelief right now and am waiting on wrecker to show up.

Not sure why pic isn't working from phone, update when I get home.
Pulley is a ASP/Eurocharged 180. The unwelded kind that has the little slots design like the ASP idler pullies and then it bolts to the hub.
I want a stock crank pulley to put back on, so if anyone has one let me know. I may get one of the supercharger pullies now to still have some increased boost.

Hard to really tell about crank, I will wait to get home and get under car for closer look. Pulley has been on for close to 2 years, a little over 12,000 miles.

I will never again install a crank pulley on these cars to damn expensive and not worth it to many horror stores like this is enough to keep my mod bug at bay. Sorry for your misfortune 
Hope it works out for you.

I just got my car back after 2700 repair and I left the stock pulley on. Screw that extra crank pulley hp. Would rather waste money on headers.
