7. Remove the water pump pulley, followed by the idler pulley (Fig 11), which will be re-
installed in a later step.

8. Remove the four 18 mm bolts at the front of the engine (marked with arrows in FIG 12).
Replace the bolt in the water pump with the supplied bolt and small diameter washer.
Replace the topmost bolt with the supplied low profile bolt. The remaining holes will be used
as attachment points for the idler support bracket in step 10.

PREPARING TO INSTALL THE SUPERCHARGER

9. Use a tubing bender to bend the metal A/C line. It is first bent upwards, then rotated down-
ward to clear the bottom portion of the supercharger. (Fig 13) NOTE: Use extreme caution
during this step. The refrigerant contained within this line is under high pressure and can
cause injury if the line ruptures. Use a tubing bender such as the one shown, as well as safe-
ty glasses/goggles. Gloves are also recommended.

10. Install the idler support bracket using the holes from step 8. It serves as a support for the
main supercharger bracket and mounting point for the supplied idler pulley. (Fig 14)
