Swapping superchargers

Hello all, this is my problem.

my superchargers release valve is all rusted and got stuck at one point, but i managed to used ruscheck lube and un seized it. now i feel its going to get seized again at some point.

SOLUTION: swap with my friends supercharger that the bank is repossessing. now this car is in bad shape but no rust. its got a check engine light and the rev bounces up and down.

question: will my car run like crap or the supercharger itself is purely mechanical.

what would you do cobaltss.net?

The supercharger has 4 hex wrench bolts. The tensiner pulley u need a 15mm to remove the belt. If theres a pulley swap you will need to tune and injectors and ect tho so watch out if so!

the actual valve on the SC or the BPV that attaches to the SC? Because you can get a new BPV (bypass valve) from ZZP for $45.

how do you get mud in a SC?
Isn't that the point of an Air Filter?
