self install

for anyone thinking about installing the c38 supercharger by yourself let me tell you that it is no easy process. I work on cars for a living and know what i am doing but to the normal person it will be a bitch. the best thing to do is break it down into days.day 1 take off the tires,fender wells,the under cover then the bumper.day 2 install the super charger. day 3 install the inter cooler and piping for me this was the most time consuming job due to the fact you had to make sure that the piping was set well enough that you could fit your headlights in and make sure that you have a screw gun or electric screwdriver and tape measure this will help a hell of alot. day 4 install the oil cooler and lines. day 5 install the tune check all hoses for leaks make sure that nothing is going to rub the fans or engine to burn anything and take car for test drive. day 6 if all is good and car is not leaking reinstall the bumper,fender wells,under cover and make sure that you didn't forget anything. some people may just say or take it to a shop to have done,well you can do that also but a extra 1000 dollars is a lot to some people.so i hope this help some people out. good luck on your adventure if you do it yourself.BTW each day maybe up to 3 hours.
