Before beginning this installation, please read through this entire instruction booklet and the Street

Supercharger System Owner’s Manual which includes the Automotive Limited Warranties Program

and the Warranty Registration form.

Vortech supercharger systems are performance improving devices. In most cases, increases in torque of

30‑35% and horsepower of 35‑45% can be expected with the boost levels specified by Vortech Engineering.

This product is intended for use on healthy, well maintained engines. Installation on a worn-out or damaged

engine is not recommended and may result in failure of the engine as well as the supercharger.

Vortech

Engineering is not responsible for engine damage.

Installation on new vehicles will not harm or adversely affect the break-in period so long as factory break-in

procedures are followed.

For best performance and continued durability, please take note of the following key

points:

1. Use only premium grade fuel 91 octane or higher (R+M/2).

2. The engine must have stock compression ratio.

3. If the engine has been modified in any way, check with Vortech prior to using this product.

4. Always listen for any sign of detonation (pinging) and discontinue hard use (no boost) until problem

is resolved.

5. Before beginning installation, replace all spark plugs that are older than 1 year or 10,000 miles with

original heat range plugs as specified by the manufacturer and reset timing to factory specifications

(follow the procedures indicated within the factory repair manual and/or as indicated on the factory

underhood emissions tag).

Do not use platinum spark plugs unless they are original equipment.

Change spark plugs every at least 15,000 miles and spark plug wires at least every 50,000 miles.
