I'm just your average sled head. I can rebuild engines and things like that, but I have never messed around with any superchargers. Just wondering if I should pay to have someone install the supercharger on my RTX or do you think I can install it myself over a weelend? I know it will take me longer to do it and don't mind.
Any of you guys that have installed this yourselves, what snags have you run into.
Any info would help me with my decision. Thanks in advance

A - Yes! Although this is a fairly complex product, installation is a snap. If you can install a set of pipes, you can install our blower kit. Typical install times are about 4 hours. Everything happens under the hood. You DO NOT remove the seat or tank!
This Comes right from MPI's web site

you should be fine. MPIs directions are very good. It will take more than 4 hours though.

From what I am told if you take your time and double check everything on your 1st install it should take you about 8 hrs. I plan on doing mine myself and just taking my time to make sure everything is lined up properly.

I am a novise & 8 hours is probably about right. I did mine late last spring. Best advise I can give is to figure out what gauging you plan on buying and do you wire & hose routing all at same time. That can be more work than putting on the supercharger. Instructions & pictures are very good.
