I'm not at all sure the S/C unit would fit, but then I'm no expert on the engine bay, either.
Part of the install is to relocate the radiator overflow canister to the driver side...
Ah! I was thinking for a minute that the Cougar came that way (but I couldn't imaging why)

you are not understanding me.
You have the stock ps pulley on. You then bolt the super charger ps pulley on top of you stock ps currently on ur car. So u have 2 pulleys on the same ps pole. 1 for your stock belt driven. then the other pulley gets its own belt. That would nod make ur ps run any faster it still has its stock revolutions.
Does that make sense.
I reject your reality and substitute my own.

Sure, but if you make the SC drive pully on the PS pole smaller, the SC turns slower, not faster. The other end of the belt is pretty much a drive shaft on the SC, so making that smaller may not be an option.
Maybe we're both cloudy on what the other is trying to express...
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

I'm VERY close to buying it for this winter. I will be taking care of my parent's cars here in Cleveland while the move to Florida for the Fall, Winter, and Spring. So I'm thinking of spending a few months customizing the crap out of the kit and making it ideal. I know it isn't too amazing of a kit but it will give me something to do as it snows 100" in 3 months. And i'll just have to drive around my dad's xkr while my car's DND.  Just think the kit has some potential if every pipe is thought out weeks at a time, with no rush to get it going.
