Welcome to the forum. To start what kind of problems are you exactly having with you're supercharger, and you will be fine with the longtubes just gotta watch speedbumps and potholes.

the problem im having is for one,its a allen supercharger and allen superchargers went out of business.whats going on is the idling,its running ruff and stalling.I also cant figure out the coolant hose routing(the car runs a little hot).I cant seem to find anyone that has this kind of supercharger,and cant find a instruction manual for the supercharger.Im thinking about trashing the supercharger and doing a head and intake swap(romeo).or just selling the car all together and get another one later.Ben a real headache.

Well before you start ripping into the supercharger look at the small stuff which would cause you're symptoms. Id start with changing the plugs, replaced the IAC and then see if you're idling problem is releived.

+1 on the IAC and plugs, do plug wires while your at it
