3. Aftercooler and Discharge Tube Mounting

A.

Install the bypass valve onto the 1” cooler inlet
barb using the original hose. Secure the assembly
to the aftercooler.

B.

Remove the silicone sleeves and clamps from the
original discharge tube.

C.

Reinstall the 2-3/4” diameter silicone sleeve onto
the supercharger outlet and slide the sleeve back
as far as possible, leaving the two #44 hose
clamps loose.

D.

Slide the 3” silicone sleeves (1 supplied, 1 original)
onto the throttle body and aftercooler outlet. Leave
the four #48 hose clamps loose.

E.

With cooler into position, slide the silicone sleeve
and clamps from the supercharger outlet onto the
aftercooler inlet and secure.

F.

Install the discharge tube between aftercooler and
throttle body and secure sleeves and clamps. (See
Figure 3-a.)

G. Reconnect the bypass valve outlet to the 90° plas-

tic elbow on the air inlet and secure with the origi-
nal hose clamps. A small amount of trimming to
the 1” hose may be necessary to ensure proper fit.
