I was wondering what all should be done to the supercharger after a while. I know that replacing the nose and oil inside of the supercharger is a good idea. Does anyone know where to order these parts? Or what service should be done to the supercharger or when?

p.s. I know I remember reading something about it at Gadgets website.. but i wasn't sure where to get all the parts

who's this gadget person?


theoretically the s/c is maintenance free. but who takes that chance right?

100K miles on the s/c would the mark where i have heard is an ideal time to vaccum and refill the fluids.

i believe GM has a fluid out, i forgot where... i'll dig up info next week.

Here's the famous gadget http://www.gadgetonline.com/4Run.htm

and here's his supercharger maintenance page http://www.gadgetonline.com/Supernose.htm

Jim @ Foreign Affairs had the couplers machined. Discussion on CMPL.

so which page exactly can u order the nose and oil from? and will Jim be producing these for a while? or just periodically?

Gadget says he got the oil from http://www.magnusonproducts.com/

I went to that site... and when I clicked on the Nose Kit, it just gave a picture... no place to oder it from... Has anyone done this work? I'm curious because I think next time my S\c is off im going to do all of this..
thanks

You need to call them. The number is on their site. They sell the oil change kit for $15 and the remanufactured nose unit for $360 which includes a refundable $50 core charge. BTW, the guy at Magnuson said the oil is the same stuff GM uses for the Pontiac SC and you can get it from them. You will need 4 ounces. The sealant is Loctite 510 which is a flange sealer and requires no gasket. IMO I think it's easier to just get it from Magnuson.

Good Luck
