Not sure what kind of info you are looking for that isn't available in this forum? If this forum isn't helping you probably shouldn't persue this idea. Anyways here's my tip, donate and get the search function and start reading some more.

He doesn't need to, Neal's a maxima guru so everything there is to know about a maxima he knows.

Check out ptatohead's SC install guide for dummies. It's in the stickies. Read it through 3 times. And read through Stillen's instructions three times (both the V1 and V2 instructions). Then at least you'll know what's involved with a basic supercharger setup.

And donate! I can't express in words how helpful old threads and discussions are, especially for this type of undertaking.

I donated. I had luke change my thingy back to maxima of the month winner though because it's funny when I post pics of my beater and people are like "wtf how did that POS win maxima of the month?" Also you can't get into offtopic without donating and I obviously venture in there from time to time.

If you really want to understand what supercharging's all about (without having to sift thru all of the threads trying to separate factual information from urban myth), get yourself a copy of Corky Bell's book, "Supercharged!" It might be overkill, but it'll give you a solid foundation of understanding upon which you can build.
As one famous philosopher once observed: "Some men learn by reading, some by watching, and then there are always some who just have to pi$$ on the electrified cattle fence for themselves."

Like Ewuzh said, get the writeup by ptatohead and donate money to search. You'll need it. Getting a factory service manual wouldn't hurt either.
