got my supercharger kit last week and started the tear-down. within a couple days i had everything removed and the supercharger base plate attached.
Note: i forgot to purge the fuel system, so it took me a while to soak up all the gas that leaked out of my fuel rail. to purge the fuel system, pull the fuel pump fuse and start the car. let it run til it stalls. then open the gas cap to release the pressure in the tank.
here are some pics of the last couple days' activities
Supercharger kit
Intake removed
new spark plugs and wires installed
throttle body removed
plenem (sp?) removed
wire channel moved out of the way
intake runners and fuel rail removed
supercharger base plate installed

You only need to unscrew the gas cap to relieve the pressure on the fuel system.

bit of an update.
the blower and idler pulley are on, and the belt is run. i had to move some brackets and gently heat and indent the right side distributor cover to make cleaance for the belt.
things are on hold right now, as it is really cold (-20 to -30 celcius)
