What's the small filter for? Does it replace the tensioner pulley? Do you use the same belt? What was the longest part of the install? Do you have to run much retard to keep it from pinging?

i would like to hear more about this install. yousaid you had to retard the timing ? why is this?

now more air means more fuel, a better fuel pump or do you need bigger injectors to?

im interested in doing one on my truck if i can find a deal. but im not edumacated on super chargers and i dont know what other things have to be changed for it to run nicely.
