Gtm supercharger issue
So I just bought my gtm stage 1 supercharger and I was reading from the rotrex instructions that the supercharger should be the highest component mounted but from gtm the supercharger goes under the alternator and the oil reservoir sits way higher than that on the driver side. Has anyone seen any problems or issues with this?
Appreciate the help guys |

Hmm not sure I get the joke .....the gtm stage one and stage two both have same location of supercharger and reservoir...so it does answer his question. Didn't think I was implying him to go a stage 2 by comparing the two ...... |

It is not a problem, ran my kit for many years and over 60,000 miles with no problems.

The new designed Rotrex superchargers recommend that the reservoir be lower than the seal as its possible the seal can weep and leak out the fluid over time. Seals weep as they wear out and its your responsibility to check the reservoir level. I think that the reservoir cooler was repositioned to keep it below the supercharger seal level too.
I'm quoting from memory without checking facts; so my information may be inaccurate.
