In order to start the LSA install - I first need to start preparing the blower.


I removed the factory ZL1 boost control solenoid - this sensor is not used in the SS application. It needs to be unplugged, the vaccum port tubes attached to it need to be removed as well. Take out the 10mm bolt - and your are good to go.


I also readjusted the boost control valve inside the supercharger. By loosening the 2 10mm bolts on the outside of the blower - and angling the valve assembled toward the firewall - this ensures that the valve is fully closed. By fully closing the boost bypass valve - you will gain up to an extra 1.5 PSI which will be good an additional 15 whp or so.


I also identified what ports need to be plugged - and which way to route the vaccum ports connecting the blower bypass valve - the supercharger - and the blower snout.


I also installed the fuel evap sensor on the front of the blower - and tightened it down with the 10mm bolt.

Parts used:
LSA Supercharger
ZL1 Fuel Evap Solenoid - 12639188 - http://amzn.to/2sh35BV
CTS-V Fuel Evap tube - 12605523
ZL1 Brake Booster Hose - 20944524 - http://amzn.to/2sgHvxC
