this is my first post hope it works. bought a mpi supercharger for my o5 rx1er , started to install it on sled , i got to the point where i think it is to much for myself. i need to know if anybody knows of a shop where i could take sled & supercharger and have it installed properly.

thanks in advance

Which step are you on? I just got done with my install and might be able to assist you through it on here (instuctions are here next to me). I took my time doing it to make sure I did it correctly and got it done in three days (8 hrs each day).

supercharer

first off the relay , i bolted it in and it is covering part of the cut in the side it is angeled back as far as it will go hitting floatbowl. now i have to disconnect steering bolts . not sure what they mean. right now i can,t see how blower goes in. i don,t want to mess anything up

thanks
 
Where is Howell, I have a house in Traverse City and I might be able to help ya out if you are close. I just installed the kit on my Apex and it does take a lot of time the first time.
 
I'm in a south suburb of chicago and can install your supercharger. I've done a couple so far its really not a bad job when your working with this kind of quality kit. :D
 
On your relay are you using the new bracket supplied? If so it should be bolted into the delta box frame where your old battery bracket bolted in (using the OEM bolt). If your relay is still in the way of the hole you cut, don't worry about it. The shaft for the blower unit will actually be about 1/2" away from it (see fig 20 in you instructions).

Attached are pics (in color) of the two steering bolts and plastic bushing (right below the jumper cable connections) you need to remove and the three (two on top one on bottom) that need to be just loosened. Loosen the nuts to the end of the bolts to move the steering shaft out of your way. You may need to use a box end wrench on the bolt as I did since the bolt may turn.

When you install the blower make sure you take the charge tube out of the blue hose. Slide the shaft in first and then slide the discharge of the blower in under the front of the deltabox. I hope you didn't do what I did and cut the front of the delta box for the blower discharge on the clutch side. I doesn't hurt anything but that was a waste of a good 1 1/2 hrs.

NOTE; remove the key for the top pulley from the shaft so it doesn't fall out prior to trying to slide the blower in place (took me 2 hours to find the damn thing).

Also, look at your charge tube right now and see if there is a brass nipple and tigon tube coming out the side. If it has an Allen head plug, they sent you a charge tube for an Apex (been there/done that). This hose should go to the top front vents on the carbs later in the install. Rather than wait for them to send one (just got it yesterday) I went to Ace hardware and bought a nipple and some tigon tube from their repair shop.

I am sure he is very busy but give Doug Flannery Motorsports a call. He is located in Wayland, Michigan. (269)792-0070.

Tell him Freddie Klies from Eastern Cycle Performance in Connecticut recommended you.

Good Luck!
