No prob, instead of getting the plenium and throttle body portedyou might want to look into a single blade throttle body, and a C&L plenium Lightning Force Perf has them, they are a pretty reasonable price and worth the extra hp, have both on my truck

I'll let her know. The reason the blower is going to Stiegmeier is that my friend won a contest they were having for a free Stage 1 port job on the blower. She sent the plenum and t-body along to be done on her dime. I'm interested to see how it turns out.

This might be a dumb question, but does the supercharger lube come out when you undo the blower from the intercooler or do I need to drain it first?

the supercharger oil stays in the snout, now most L's have oil in the blower and intercooler cause it takes on oil, even with my oil seperator it still takes on some oil

No. The only time you need to worry about it is when you seperate the snout from the case.
