First things first buy yourself a new Whipple 2.9L blower package from Lethal Performance!

Removal Of Stock Blower
Step 1: Disconnect Battery and Remove Cold Air Intake
Step 2: Remove Throttle Body
Just four 8mm screws that hold it on. Remove both electrical connections.
Step 3: Remove Plenum From Stock Blower
The fittings on the back are quick connect. Just push on the little tab and they slide right off. There are four 8mm screws that hold it to the blower.
Step 4: Remove EGR
There is a large 1 1/16 line coming into the EGR from behind. Disconnect that and then the bolts holding it to the SuperCharger.
Step 5: Remove Fuel Rails & Injectors
There are 4 8mm bolts that hold them on just remove them, unplug the fuel pressure sensor and they pull right out. The fuel line is a quick connect. Mine had a little fuel in it so I wrapped it in a SHAM WOW and put it aside. Remember NO SMOKING while your working!
Step 5: Remove The Supercharger Belt
I don't have a picture but it's easy. Remove the coolant overflow tank on from the left side of the engine bay (facing the car) and pull it aside. I use a torque wrench with a 1/2 adapter and small extension to sick in the pulley tensioner. Just slide the belt off and tuck it away up top to away the new blower.
Step 6: Remove the blower
Remove the 10 10mm bolts from the blower and it should just pull right up.
CONGRATULATIONS! Your stock blower is off, now it's time to bolt on some power! :beer:
