Installation Instructions
50 State Smog Legal, as per CARB EO #D-213-17
Congratulations on selecting the best performing and best backed automotive supercharger
available today... the VORTECH® V-2® Supercharger!
Before beginning this installation, please read through this entire instruction booklet and the Street Supercharger System Owner's Manual which includes the Limited Warranty Program, the Warranty Registration form and return envelope.
Vortech supercharger systems are performance improving devices. In most cases, increases in torque of 30 ­35% and horsepower between 35 - 45% can be expected with the boost levels specied by Vortech Engineer­ing. 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. Vortech Engineering 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 92 octane or higher (R+M/2).
2. The engine must have stock compression ratio.
3. If the engine has been modied in any way, check with Vortech prior to using this product.
4. Always listen for any sign of detonation (pinging) and discontinue hard use (no boost) until the problem
is resolved.
5. Perform an oil and lter 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 lter 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 specied by the manufacturer and reset timing to factory specications (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 every at least 15,000 miles and spark plug wires at least every 50,000 miles.

3. OIL DRAIN (ENGINE OIL-FED KITS ONLY. APPLICATIONS WITH V-3 SUPER­CHARGERS SKIP AHEAD TO STEP 4)
A. To provide an oil drain for the supercharger, it is
necessary to make a hole in the oil pan. Locate and mark hole as per diagram. It is best to punch
the hole rather than drill. B. Remove paint around the hole area. C. Use a small center punch to perforate the pan and
expand the hole. Switch to a larger diameter punch
and expand the hole further to approximately 9/16"
diameter. Most punches are made from hexagon
material and may be placed in a socket with an
extension to make this procedure easier. D. Tap the hole with a 3/8" NPT tap approximately
1/4" deep. Pack the utes of the tap with heavy
grease to hold chips. Use a small magnet to check
for any stray chips.
NOTE: This method of rolling over the lip of the hole
and tapping it works very well if carefully done and should cause no problems.
E. Thoroughly clean the threaded area. Apply a
small amount of silicone sealer to the new threads
and thread in the oil drain assembly. Apply more
sealer to the 3/8" NPT hose tting and secure in
hole. Make sure a seal is formed all around the
tting. F. Drain the engine oil and change the lter.

18. T-REX® FUEL PUMP INSTALLATION (High-Output System Only)
A. Remove spare tire, etc. from trunk. B. Trim "Cut-Out" from the template provided in the kit and
place over spare tire hold-down. Centerpunch and drill the four 3/16" holes in the trunk oor.
C. Jack up the rear of the car and support with jack stands. D. Mount the T-Rex fuel pump to the underside of the tire
well with the rubber mounts, adel clamps and fasteners provided. Refer to the graphic on the following page.
E. Remove the hose assembly and tting that connects the
fuel tank to the fuel lter inlet. Carefully rotate the stock hose assembly previously disconnected from the lter downward 90°.
F. Connect the T-Rex inlet hose assembly to the stock female
supply hose tting by gently pushing the ttings together and making sure they are locked.
G. Fasten the extended feed line clear of the lter by looping
the two 11" cable ties through the front slot on the fuel lter mount, being careful not to kink the line.
H. Plug the female connector onto the fuel lter inlet making
sure the hose assembly clears all exhaust tubing and sharp objects.
NOTE: Use extreme caution when routing fuel lines. Make sure fuel
lines are located away from hot exhaust pipes and sharp edges
on vehicle underbody.
I. Mark and drill a 1/8" hole and mount the relay inside the
trunk in position as shown in the template. Use the sheet metal screw provided.
J. From relay terminal #85, tap the yellow wire into the stock
fuel pump harness in the trunk near the right tail light. Tap into the purple wire with the supplied scotch lock. (On some model years, wire may be brownish-green.)
K. Connect the short red wire on relay terminal #8 to the (+)
terminal on the fuel pump.
L. Connect the longer black wire from the (-) terminal on the
fuel pump to a clean ground.
M. Connect the short black wire to a clean ground from relay
terminal #86 (relay screw mount works well).
N. Route the remaining long red wire from relay terminal #30
up to the high current fuse panel located in the engine compartment. Using a solderless connector, connect the supplied fuse holder and fuse to the end of the wire. Crimp the fuse wire to the large ring terminal and attach the ac­cessory (+) battery lug.

WARNING: Do not attempt to operate the vehicle until
®
ALL components are installed and ALL
operations are completed including the nal
check.
19. FINAL CHECK
A. Reconnect the battery. B. If your vehicle has gone over 10,000 miles
since its last spark plug change, you will need to change the spark plugs now before
test driving the vehicle.
C. Check all ttings, nuts, bolts and clamps
for tightness. Pay particular attention to oil and fuel lines around moving parts, sharp edges and exhaust system parts. Make sure all wires and lines are properly secured with clamps or tie wraps.
D. Check all uid levels, making sure that your
tank(s) is lled with 92 octane or higher fuel before commencing test drive.
E. Start engine and allow to idle a few minutes,
then shut off.
F. Recheck to be sure that no hoses, wires,
etc. are near exhaust headers or moving parts and for signs of any uid leakage. Check ignition timing to make sure it is set to stock specications before commencing
test drive.
G. PLEASE TAKE SPECIAL NOTE: Operating
the vehicle without ALL the subassemblies completely and properly installed may cause
FAILURE OF MAJOR COMPONENTS. H. Test drive the vehicle. I. The supercharger drive belt stretches ini-
tially and will require adjustment between
250 and 400 miles.
J. Read the STREET SUPERCHARGER
SYSTEM OW NER'S MANUAL AND
RETURN WARRANTY REGISTRATION
FORM within thirty (30) days of purchasing
your supercharger system to qualify.
For internally lubricated V3 units only
This supercharger has been factory pre-lled with special Vortech synthetic lubricant. Oil does not need to be added to a brand new unit; however a uid level check should be performed.
Prior to operating the supercharger on the vehicle and after installation onto the vehicle:
Remove the factory installed at-head brass shipping plug (not the dipstick) from the top of the supercharger case. Replace the sealed shipping plug with the supplied “vented” plug. Do not operate the supercharger without it. Check the supercharger uid level.
Fluid level checking procedure:
1. Ensure that the .06” copper sealing washer is located on the dipstick base.
2. Thread the clean dipstick into the supercharger unit it seats.
3. Once the dipstick has seated, remove the dipstick from the unit.
Fluid should register in the cross-
hatched area on the dipstick.
4. DO NOT OVERFILL!!! Drain excess fluid the unit if it is above the maximum level on the dipstick.
Check the uid level using the dipstick at least every 2,500 miles.
Initial supercharger uid change must be per­formed at 2,500 miles. The supercharger uid must be changed at least every 7,500 miles.
Drain the uid, rell the unit with 4 oz. of Vortech V3 lubricating uid and then conrm proper oil level using the dipstick. DO NOT OVERFILL!!!
WARNING: Use of any other uid other than the special
Vortech lubricant will void the warranty and may cause component failure.
