How do I go about removing the supercharger idler pulley from my 99 Grand prix gtp? It is the smooth one by the way. All advice is appreciated...I don't like this N/A no scoot crap anymore! No offense to you N/A guys.

15 mm bolt or a torx some say.

Haha yeah I told my friend that and he was like "no way" because he has a GT. I just told him it really is that slow.

I know its not the 15mm bolt. But do you have any idea on what size of torx?
 
Drive your car to the parts store and ask them if you can borrow it for a few min and just change it in the parking lot.
 


lol.. my idler just ripped yesterday while I was driving on the interstate. I heard a pop and just thought I ran something over and later when I gave it some gas all I heard from my car was, "SSSLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!"
 
Haha well I am now 'screwed'. I got the idler off with my T45 bit and after putting the new one on the bolt slipped out of my hand and landed into the unknown areas of the engine bay. I already tried the take the car gun it to 20 and slam on the brake thing and that didnt work and I can jack up the car because it is on my very well inclined driveway. What should I do?
 
Nevermind luckily my mom came home with her date who was 6'5" and just reached under and pulled it out like it was nothing. So everything is reassembled and running good except at higher idle the belt chirps a bit from some belt dust on the tensioner that I forgot to clean off. Other than that its good, kind of depressed about the supercharger being a little quiter though.
 


Funny but I am not going to post pics of my mom on this site. However one of my friends thought she was in her twenties and called her a fox.
