Blower oil change every 5,000 miles. An annual belt swap wouldn't be unheard of.

The easiest way is from the top but IMO it drain out the residue that sits on the bottom if it exists. I took the head unit off and drained it f rom the bottom and it appears that was the best method. It does take a bit more time but well worth the efforts.

I dropped the cross pipe from the supercharger to the intercooler and reached up and unscrewed the btm drain plug ! I believe it's better to drain from the btm because of any residue or metal filings from the procharger .
