Anyone have a DIY writeup on KA24DE-R?

Hey everyone,

I just picked up a small twin screw for my s13! It came off of a 3.8L mustang, not the Frontier. But I got it for a steal, so I figured, why not? It came with the throttle body inlet and everything, so it looks to be a pretty straightforward looking job to do-it-myself lol. However, it would be nice to have a DIY somewhere for some help. I have never done something this "big" on my car so I am a bit of a mechanical n00b. It might help to address I won't be mounting it to the intake manifold, the damn thing is just to small. So if anyone can help me out it would be GREATLY appreciated, I can't wait to have that "R" tagged at the end of my KA denotation! :yesnod

Unless it's the same type of supercharger as a Frontier, I'm afraid you'll have to do everything custom.

You can search around on Google and look at other KA-R setups to get and idea of what sort of work you'll need to do and start making templates and such for mounting brackets or adapter plates.
