Anyone remove Supercharger? Need some help

Post by C7ZSteen »

I have a 2017 757 package and installing a MightMouse catch can. Need to remove loosen/remove supercharger. Anyone have any advice or experience with this? I doesn’t look like it has the typical “lid” the TVS blower has.

I’ve got nothing to help. However, I know of a Callaway car with 290k miles and no catch can. I’m not sure they are needed.

You are correct in the sense it does not have a "lid" like the small factory supercharger. The part you are looking at is one large housing.

Here's some images, but it's basically just removed by accessing through the bolts visible from the top, looking down. Callaway Cars can supply new gaskets.

I don't think they are needed, either. Some may say with direct injection, you don't get the fuel "wash" over the valves. But it's not been a problem in any of the DI vehicles I've owned. My one has 150K+ mi.
