Default Vortech Supercharger installation

I just bought a Vortech Supercharger kit for my 2002 Z28. I'm looking for someone to do the installation for me but I don't know who to go to. I live in Northeast Ohio and am willing to drive. Has anyone done this install and if so would you be willing to do another for a fee? Or does anyone know of a good garage? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

What kept you away from the ATI kit? MUCH cleaner install, and all around better kit, IMO. The Vortech kit is waaaay to complicated, and clutters the engine bay too much.

Well, I live near Summit Racing headquarters and I bought the supercharger through them. One of the techs there talked me into it and I got a pretty decent price.

I am quite a drive from you but I would be willing to help you out. I haven't installed any superchargers but I have done heads and cams.

I have friend that would be willing to help also who works on a Viper race team and has extensive experience working on Porches.

Email me if you are interested.
