I'm thinking of actually installing almost everything in my garage, then possibly taking it over to my friend's place where he has a lift to do the final stuff (tap upper pan, high-flow cat install, etc.). Who knows, I'll probably just end up doing everything in my garage.

You can probably install the bracket, blower, intercooler, and pipes, but then leave the stock serpentine belt on there until you get everything else hooked up. But you'll probably have to remove the blower again to get the oil lines installed. I would just start on a Friday night and shoot for getting it done in a weekend. If you don't, then I would try to find another car to drive around until you get it done.

So Im gonna try to get it all done this weekend but I was wondering if I do hook everything up can I drive around without the cog belt for the blower on until I can take it to a shop to get a dyno done and the a/f and everything else checked??

I can hook everything up even the feed and drains into the blower right?? and drive it without any problems

does it matter if the air filter is hooked up and goes through the IC??
