You guys have probably answered this question often but I cant find the answer. I need to change the oil in my supercharger (stock Blower)car has 48,000 miles only mods are CAI and Exhaust.

What oil do I use How much and where do I purchase? Thanks in advance.

You can get the supercharger at any GM or Ford dealership. That or you can give Bob Steigemeier a call and get it from him. The Ford and GM oil is the same, but from what I have heard, GM is much cheaper. The M112 and M90 use the same oil and Pontiac GTP's use the M90.
I think its called GM Vehicle Care Supercharger Oil. It looks like this:

and comes in 4oz bottles. Some people have used large syringes and a vacuum hose to suck the oil out, I bought a cool little tool from Harbor Freight that is designed to draw fluid out of tight spaces like the SC. This is what it looks like.

I think its recommended that "supercharger oil" be changed every 25k. However, I would not let regular motor oil (even Mobil 1) go that long. At most I'd be changing the Mobil 1 every 10k.
