from what i've gathered.

you can install it all yourself, the only part that you might not be able to is tapping the oil pan for the oil return line from the Turbo.

as for installing it and driving it there...not the best idea I think. You changed the MAF, Injectors, Pump, and the MAF is relocated. I don't see it doing all that well, i wondered this to. Perhaps if you keep it below 2k rpms it MIGHT be ok? i don't know for sure.

I wouldn't...Your just asking for trouble...You may be ok but if your not then your looking at a newly supercharged blown motor and that won't be much fun to drive.

Itll drive fine on the factory tune. BUT you have to keep the stock maf and injectors installed until you get to the tuner AND you cannot get into boost or go above 3500rpm. If you try and run larger injectors and upgraded maf on the factory tune it will run like crap and may even cause some problems.

so im piecing a kit together and im going intercooled right off the bat. i know i wont need the discharge assembly but im wondering for the intake assembly, can i just buy a powerpipe and just substitute it, also does the powerpipe come with the air filter like the intake assembly does?
as far as bov/bpv whats the best location to put one of these at. im still undecided if im going to get a bov or a bpv.

You can substitute for the powerpipe but it does not come with a filter or the bracket that holds the maf to the fender. the best location for the valve would depend on whether you are running a blow thru setup maf or a draw thru maf. Mount it after the intercooler either way though.

I really wish people would stop asking if this kit will work on other types of cars. Its cluttering up the thread. The kit ONLY FITS 2v GTs. If you want to price a kit for another car youll have to search through the superchargersonline website and find the parts you need for a kit that will work....
