Default need advice on S/C s2000

i ve just bought previous jason's s2000 with a vortech supercharger on it, the supercharger has been on it for about 4 years, and was replaced once recently. other than rear passenger side wheel bearring problem, the car is amazing and deadly fast.

wonding if anyone could give me some advice of what are the things i have to be careful with or might need work on it.

keep a close eye on your oil levels. The vortech kit(or any aftermarket sc) has some oil lines that feed and drain the oil to the charger, which may leak, so you may want to keep a closer eye on your dipstick.

check the belt tension once a week if possible. I removed one of the trays under the car to gain access to the belt at the bottom of the charger. You should be able to just barely rotate it 90 degrees with your two strong fingers.

Many people are running one step colder plugs( I have ngk 7173's), so you may need to change them out. Some guys change them every 3k miles, but I will just do 4k miles or a season.

synthetic oil changed often (3-6 k miles.) vortech recommends syn oil

get a vortech manual from the website if you dont have one and read it, I am sure I am missing a few things.

congrats on the purchase,

hope that helps.
