Do you think you could get a few pictures of your engine bay please? I'm in the process of going supercharged and I'm just curious where some of the wiring/lines go. Thanks

I'm not really familiar with how this stuff works so heres a few questions I've got:
the sensor on the upper left of the intake manifold hooks up to what?
and the sensor on top of the supercharger?
The hose line on the throttle body goes where?
Also where do you hook up for the boost guage?

hmm
the first sensor you ask doesnt need to hook up to anything on our cars, but the hole needs to be plugged. any seal will work there, but i thought it would be easiest to just buy the sensor
the one on top of the supercharger is your MAP sensor. Unplug the old one from your stock intake manifold, and plug the harness into this new one on top of the supercharger. the old sensor will not be reused.
the little plastic hose that connects to the TB goes to....idk what its called. but it connects to where the stock one connected. It is a unique plastic hose, and wont be confused with any others once in the car.
The boost gauge will hook up to that little stem on your new intake manifold, the one directly in the middle near the top.

So instead of the 42.5 injectors, could i just go with the 60's and not have to worry about upgrading anything in the future? What is the difference btween the two and does the 60's need more mods to support them?
