    Ordered a kit from intense for a coupler change. Im very impressed with these guys, they are always willing to answer all my questions and are very helpful. One of the guys said if I was going to change the coupler to try and not tear the gasket to the superchager. Now I have not ever changed one of these only watched youtube videos, I didnt even know that was possible? Im a little spooked about doing this now, any suggestions??

    They mean the gasket that is between the blower and the manifold. Just be careful when you take it off. Try to get the oil out before you take the snout off too otherwise it'll be messy.

    you dont have to remove the SC to change the coupler. the snout will come off and you dont have to mess with the SC Gasket

    Most of the time the gasket is fine. Technically as long as it doesn't break under the charger, you don't need to piece under the snout. Sure there's a little difference in height.. if that's taken care of where the bolt is.. you are all set.

    I've always had great customer service from Todd and the guys.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.
