I was feeling kinda concerned when seeing the under-the-hood shot of the belt and the pulley. They seemed really close to the hood of the car. Under hard throttle/stress, couldn't the motor twist in ways to potentially make contact between the pulley/belt and the hood? sorry is that sounds stupid, I'm just curious
Watch some dyno videos of a stock engine to see how soft the mounts are. You want new engine mounts regardless of this modification and with a supercharger or any serious power you'd want new mounts.

You'd want them for power transmission purposes anyway, as you can feel the slop in this car real well once you throw on summer shoes.
