This section covers pre-start checks and inspec-
tions, as well as initial start-up.
4.1 Inspect the following:
A. Wires, harnesses and electrical connections.
Are all items properly dressed, connected
and secured? If any electrical connections
have been dis-connected, re-connect them
before you start your vehicle.
B. Hoses, lines and fittings. Are all items prop-
erly dressed, connected and secured?
C. Fasteners, brackets, and clamps. Are all
items properly installed and tightened?

engine oil at their proper levels? Are there
any fluid leaks?

accessory drive and supercharger drive belts,
depending on the requirement of your vehi-
cle) properly installed, aligned and ten-
sioned?
4.2 Perform the following:
A. Cycle the ignition key from “off “ to “on”
position three (3) times at fifteen (15) sec-
ond intervals. Afterwards, check the entire
fuel system for any leaks.
B. Start the car. Verify that the oil pressure is
within the normal operating range. Listen
closely. The engine should idle and sound
the same as it did before you began the
installation. Shutdown the engine, discon-
nect the oil feed line from the blower.
Remove the oil jet from the blower. Blow
through the oil jet to ensure there is no
blockage or foreign matter plugging it. Re-
install oil jet and oil feed line and proceed.

ing temperatures. Bleed the cooling system
and top off as necessary.

***CAUTION***
See the supercharger service manual included in
your kit for information on supercharger servicing
and maintenance, belt tightening, troubleshooting,
special tuning, and warranty information.
Now that the work is down, it’s time to enjoy
your labor of love. Take the car out on the road
and let it flex it’s muscles, but remember, the
response and performance will now be different
from that to which you have been accustomed.
Have fun!
