It's a pretty big project IMO to swap f/i. You should fully read each of these links and make sure you understand and absorb everything

I have read these and I got some books.. Street turbocharging Design, Fabrication, installation, and tuning of High-performance Turbocharger Systems by Mark Warner

I also bought Turbocharging Performance handbook (Motorbooks Workshop) by Jeff Hartman
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A lot of people piece together supercharger kits and turbo charger kits..
You can get kits from ZZPerformance, Garrett (if you can find)

AFAIK, there is one set of instructions for one specific turbo kit - TubroByGarrett's cobalt kits. They ship with installation instructions for thier own specific kit. There are no instructions that will say insert part A into parts B and tighten for anything other than the Garrett kit. This is like asking how do I get to the Rock'n Roll Hall of fame (OH) from New york. There are many ways I can get to the the rock'n roll hall of fame...like a million. It depends on the choices I want to make how I get thier. I think of F/I as more of a strategy vs this is how it's done laid out for you in 'data sheet style'. Reading those thread above and those books (or really any good turbo book) will give you ideas on how to do this.. and of course when you hit a wall, we're all here

I understand why people always scream search! when this question pops up. Generally, if you don't already have a good idea, you have a lot of reading to do. Those are turbo geared books (they do have some supercharger info though) so you may want to check out what else motorbooks workshop has.

Oh darn. I can't believe you guys won't tell us step by step how to supercharge. I don't want to search and I don't want to sift through the threads. I need someone to come by this thread and lay it all out step by step

My sig was made in Photoshop :p I could probably make a step by step how to. I've done it so many tomes. But it's to time consuming. And time is $$$

I actually cut out a picture of a supercharger and put it under the hood. People cannot believe it looks so real
