2008 Chevy Silverado ProCharger Supercharger Installation - The Heart of a Cover Truck

The serpentine belt were then routed around the pulleys and all the loose bolts and fasteners were tightened.

Brian once again shot the truck back in the air and installed the rear intercooler bracket to the crossmember using two of the splash panel bolts. The two remaining splash panel bolts were used to secure the two mounting straps that would support the intercooler's front side.

Joe Conduff, owner of HOT Motorsports, prepared the ProCharger intercooler for installation by fitting the rubber flap and aluminum support strap to the intercooler using the included hardware. The intercooler was then lifted and secured into place at the front strap and rear bracket mounting points.

A 31/2-inch reducer was placed around the throttle-body and the upper tube was inserted and clamped down. The MAF sensor needed to be squeezed into the supplied elbow hose, which was not exactly an easy fit. Once in place, the fitting was clamped and attached to the end of the upper tube. The connection to the intercooler was not made until after a few more steps were covered under the hood.

Moving to the driver side of the engine compartment, Joe fitted the rubber 45-degree elbow to the 3-inch surge tube and clamped to the outlet from the supercharger unit.

A 90-degree elbow was attached to the surge tube's bung...

...which was then coupled with the surge valve.

Next, the air filter and adapter were paired and attached to the back of the ProCharger unit using a rubber elbow with a surge attachment bung.
