FOREWORD
roper installation of this supercharger kit requires general
automotive mechanic knowledge and experience. Please
P

to a professional installer/technician. Please call Paxton Automotive
for installers in your area.
All rights reserved. No part of this publication may be reproduced, transmitted, transcribed,
or translated into another language in any form, by any means without written permission
efore beginning this installation, please read
through this entire instruction booklet and
the Street Supercharger System Owner's
B
Manual which includes the Automotive Limited
Warranties Program and the Warranty Registration
form.
Paxton supercharger systems are performance
improving devices. In most cases, increases in
torque of 30-35% and horsepower of 35-45% can
be expected with the boost levels specified by
Paxton Automotive. This product is intended for
use on healthy, well maintained engines.
Installation on a worn-out or damaged engine is
not recommended and may result in failure of the
engine as well as the supercharger. Paxton
Automotive is not responsible for engine damage.
Installation on new vehicles will not harm or
adversely affect the break-in period so long as factory break-in procedures are followed.
For best performance and continued durability,
please take note of the following key points:
1. Use only premium grade fuel 91 octane or
higher (R+M/2).
2. The engine must have stock compression
ratio.
3. If the engine has been modified in any way,
check with Paxton prior to using this product.
4. Always listen for any sign of detonation
(pinging) and discontinue hard use (no
boost) until problem is resolved.
5. Perform an oil and filter change upon completion of this installation and prior to test
driving your vehicle. Thereafter, always use a
high grade SF rated engine oil or a high
quality synthetic, and change the oil and filter every 3,000 miles or less. Never attempt
to extend the oil change interval beyond
3,000 miles, regardless of oil manufacturer's
claims as potential damage to the supercharger may result.
6. Before beginning installation, replace all
spark plugs that are older than 1 year or
10,000 miles with original heat range plugs
as specified by the manufacturer and reset
timing to factory specifications (follow the
procedures indicated within the factory
repair manual and/or as indicated on the
factory underhood emissions tag). Do not
use platinum spark plugs unless they are
original equipment. Change spark plugs at
least every 15,000 miles and spark plug
wires at least every 50,000 miles.

engine. Using the supplied fitting install the
short 1" nipple into the side of the supplied
TEE fitting.
*** NOTE ***
Do not use Teflon paste or Teflon tape on this fitting
as it may clog the supercharger oil jet and lead to
premature supercharger failure.
B. Install the supplied TEE fitting into the
location were the factory sending unit was
originally located. With the supplied TEE
fitting installed and the outlets facing up and
down install the factory sending unit into
the outlet of the tee that is facing up. Install

down1-3/4" from the lip of the oil pan and
make a mark. Center the mark between the
two oil pan retaining bolts. (See Fig 3-a.)
*** NOTE ***
It may be necessary to slightly bend the transmission cooler lines to gain access to the oil drain location.
E. Thoroughly clean the threaded area. Reach
inside the oil pan and retrieve any stray
chips. Apply a small amount of sealer to the
new threads. Apply more sealer to the supplied 3/8" x 16 x –8 fitting and secure in the
hole using a 13/16" open end wrench. Make
sure a seal is formed all around the fitting.
(See Fig. 3-b.)

B. Using a 3/16" drill bit drill a pilot hole at the
designated mark, use grease on the drill bit
to catch any metal shavings from falling into
the oil pan. With a small piece of wire confirm that there is nothing to interfere with
the punch that is provided.
C. Using an air hammer and the supplied punch
start to enlarge the hole to 9/16" of an inch.
It is recommended to use anti seize or grease
on the punch, which will allow the punch to
role the pan correctly.
*** NOTE ***
Using a hammer can damage the oil pan, extra care
is required.)
D. When you have the hole enlarged to 9/16"
pack the flutes of a 3/8" NPT tap (not supplied). Tap the hole until the fitting can be
started.
