READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY!
Follow the instructions STEP-BY-STEP, and your
installation will be trouble free. If in doubt, CALL
1-888-888-4079. We suggest that as you pro-
ceed through the installation, you should read a
few steps ahead in the instructions so you are
certain to catch all notes and warnings.

ATTENTION SUPERCHARGER INSTALLER!
Before proceeding with the installation, it is
important to know that to validate the 2 year,
100K warranty on your new J/R supercharger,
you must completely fill out the Moss Motors /
Jackson Racing warranty card that comes in
every kit, including serial number which is on a
small white ‘bar code’ label on the body of the
supercharger. Write down all of the numbers
which appear on that label in the appropriate
space on the warranty card. Be certain to do this
now because once your supercharger is
installed, it may be almost impossible to retrieve
that serial number.

SPECIAL NOTE: Jackson Racing Supercharger
Systems are designed to be installed by individu-
als with good mechanical sense and with the
proper tools. Use your discretion--if you are not a
competent mechanic, do not attempt this installa-
tion.

TOOLS REQUIRED: Most of these tools are
available at your local hardware or auto parts
stores.
17mm, 14mm, 13mm, 12mm, 10mm & 8mm
sockets
Deep sockets (14mm or 9/16”, 10mm)
Phillips and Standard screwdrivers
Multi-purpose pliers
10mm, 12mm, and 17mm open end wrenches
Timing light
A shop manual is useful.

WARNING:  Once the installation is complete,
CHECK AND RECHECK ALL fuel system con-
nections for possible leaks before operating the
vehicle. 91-octane gasoline (or higher) is
required when running a supercharger.

During this installation process, you will reuse
some parts or hardware and not reinstall others.
It is recommended that you make space for
those that you will reuse, and a separate space
for those that you will not reinstall. In addition,
you should save the parts that will not get reused
in case you ever have reason to convert the
engine back to stock.

Enclosed is a set of labels that we suggest you
use to label the electrical connectors that you will
be unplugging.
