1. Remove D.E.S.S. lanyard and disconnect battery cables.

2. Unclip engine coolant overflow tank, remove from engine compartment cowling and place upright in engine

compartment. Take care not to tip overflow tank allowing coolant to drain.

3. RXP: Remove engine compartment cowling by first removing the two forward-most M10 socket head cap bolts and

rear-most M10 socket head cap bolt completely. Loosen the two remaining M10 socket head cap bolts on lower

inside rear edge of engine compartment cowling. (see illustration #1)

RXT/GTX-SC: Completely loosen the four M8 bolts holding engine compartment cross section in place. (see

illustration #2) Remove both top and bottom halves of engine compartment cross-section supports. Leave air intake

duct attached to bottom half.

4. Inside front storage compartment, locate and disconnect regulator/rectifier connector and instrument panel

connectors. (see illustration #3) For pre `07 model RXT/GTX-SC you will need to remove the thru-hull inspection

cover by carefully removing the eleven snap fasteners. (see illustration #4).

5. Disconnect engine ventilation hose from OE air intake system. (see illustration #5)

6. Remove OE intake ducting from supercharger inlet forward and discard. (see illustration #6) Retain hose clamps for

(see illustration #8) NOTE: Do not over tighten clamp.

9. RXP: Install regulator/rectifier bracket at battery tray location between battery bracket and hull mount. (see

illustration #9) Plug into OE wiring harness.

`07 RXT & GTX-SC: Install regulator/rectifier bracket at battery tray location between fuel tank and engine. Pull

wiring for connectors out of split lume back to regulator/rectifier mounting location. Wrap wiring with supplied split

lume and secure with electrical tape at both ends. (see illustration #10) Plug into OE wiring harness.

` 05~06 RXT/`03~06 GTX-SC: Install regulator/rectifier bracket onto backside of front storage compartment/thru-hull

inspection cover with supplied M8 bolt, washers and nut. (see illustration #11).

engine compartment and route along right side of engine. (see illustration #’s 12 & 13)

`07 RXT & GTX-SC: Remove four bolts securing throttle body to intake manifold. Lift throttle body up and rest on top

edge of intake manifold. (see illustration #14) From rear of engine compartment, insert straight end of Power Filter

Tube into engine compartment and route along right side of engine. When you encounter resistance tap end of tube

Model RXP’s it will be necessary to remove 6” from end of OE hose and add the supplied formed extension hose in

order to reach Power Filter Tube. (see illustration #18)

16. At supercharger, ensure Power Filter Tube is inserted completely into silicone coupler and tighten remaining hose

clamp. (see illustration #19) NOTE: Do not over tighten hose clamp.

17. Install supplied pre-filter onto supplied Power Filter element. Install Power Filter onto Power Filter Tube inlet and

secure. (see illustration #20) TIP: For RXP models it is easier to pass Power Filter through hull from front of craft

and under steering. NOTE: Do not over tighten hose clamp.

18. RXP: Replace engine compartment cowling in reverse order of Step ‘2’. NOTE: Use BLUE Loc-Tite. Do not over

tighten bolts.
