Who is the Australian distributor you mention?
I did the same thing not too long ago.
Luckily I found a local mobile mechanic willing to do it for me for a good price.
His work was flawless. The clearance between the 928 impeller and the outer edge is perfect.

Just make sure you don't lose the small rectangular key that goes into the Supercharger to keep the pulley from spinning or you may lose boost I think.

When we opened mine...my key thing fell out so we were like wow I was loosing boost probably the entire time!!
Also, my outer edge impeller blade (circular part) got chipped -- not sure where the chipped piece went or how long it was chipped for, but it is now replaced with the 928 impeller along with high speed bearings and such.

Yay!

Good luck with your install and I hope all goes well.
