There are two fualts seen in the past on these cars. One is the seals go bad and you get blow by, the other is the shaft was going bad and not spinning the S/C. Sounds like you may have actually broken an impeller blade or something similar. I'd call vortech and get a repair authorization number and then get busy taking the S/C off and then rearranging things so you can still drive the car if need be.
