TPC Boxster Supercharger Manual needed !!

Hello,

I’m looking for the factory TPC supercharger (for Boxster) install manual. I’ve got one some guy made but it leaves a bit to be desired (not that the original was a grand piece of literature)

PDF, JPG’s, Xerox copy. I’ll pay reasonably for you trouble and expense

Thanks! PK

I did my install with out any manual. It was the imagine auto charger though. I did a pretty detailed write up on it. If you are handy with tools it is not a huge task to do the install with out the manual. It is all pretty self explained.

Thanks Jay,

Your correct, it isn’t’ terribly hard to figure out. I just want to have my ducks in a row before I commit to wriggling around down below. I tried to put the thing in once before (got hung up getting one pipe in ( off the SC & up to the topside). Despite what TPC insisted, that its “100% bolt on”, as It turns out & unbenounced to me, a lot of people had the same problem & wound up dropping the engine a few to fit said pipe in… I gave up).

Any way, The only thing I recall the manual being of use for was a series of preliminary gymnastics with various hoses in the vicinity of the SC and, the wiring for the 7th injector controller. I suppose I would also find some details I might otherwise overlook.

With that said, the IA SC has some significant differences (among other things, looks like a elluva lot cleaner install).But, if your “write up” is easily portable (I.E. digital), great. I’m sure some of the gray areas for me might be covered and overlap in your IA write up.

I’ll P.M you with my email.

Thanks again,

PK

Interesting read. Not much overlap though, but nice to know that TPC doesn’t necessarily carry the whole aggravation banner alone.

Thanks PK

P.S. The use of zip ties rings some bells...
