Do NOT spin the SC up with that broken impeller. If it comes apart you will have much more problems.

Seriously, the impeller balance is critical and if reaches max operating rpm it could come apart. I would remove the drive belt NOW!

As Ghostvette said, if the tune date is this critical you would be better off with a new SC which you should be able to get very quick.

Good luck and sorry that this happened.

Also, did you find the part that broke and the missing piece of the impeller blade? you don't want those parts ingested by the engine!.
