Good on you -not that difficult but like everything else take your time and anywhere it says CUT - be damn sure before you do. Other thing I find it the directions while pretty good assume you know a lot more than one would think they should. Also need a pretty complete toolkit with socket alan wrenches and extensions etc.

Be prepared to banging knuckles and for sure check around every new hose and clamp to make sure they are not rubbing or interfering with some other piece of equipment

For example in the directions they skip the part where you put the hose from the supercharger to the intake manifold and it can be a bugger unless ALL the clamps and connections are loose and you can wiggle them in all different directions until it lines up. At the same time there was a mounting screw on the frame right underneath it that I had to grind off and smooth so it didn't wear a hole in the hose when the engine torqued on its mounts.
