Supercharger clutch replacement

Any options besides $1500 from the dealer?

They can be rebuilt with new bearings. Search here and you will find thread. So those who have swapped there upper for a smaller/FSP then they might be willing to part ways with their old one.

Here is a link to a DIY on replacing the bearings on the OE SC clutched pulley.

Yeah I too am looking to replacement clutch. There's a high-frequency metallic sound coming from my clutch. I know it's not the bearing since I did that about a year ago. It sounds like it's coming from being the bearing, which would be the clutch, unless there's a lower-bearing?

if you all are looking to replace the black magnet portion of the SC then you all will need a special MB puller to remove it
