changing supercharger oil?
How often should i change the oil on a d1 prochager? I am buying a blown Z06 this weekend and the owner said every 1k miles, is this correct or excessive?
Thanks, Jordan

I change mine every other oil change which is around 6500-7000 miles give or take..here right from the web site
The patented SC design eliminates the need for oil lines and punching a hole in the oil pan, thanks to an exclusive oil pump. This pump aerates the oil to create the oil mist lubrication required for the ProCharger’s precision bearings and gears. This oil pump (aeration pump) does not require priming at start-up, and oil changes are required only every 6,000 miles. Additionally, instead of being forced to utilize engine oil or the grease in sealed bearings, SC ProChargers are lubricated with an extremely high quality synthetic oil which is specifically engineered for high speed use, and produces the least frictional heat and parasitic load. The self-contained design also eliminates the heat that is transferred to a supercharger by engine oil in oil-fed applications, and avoids the risk of clogged supercharger oil lines, oil drainage problems, or engine oil leakage.

yea its a 2003 Z06 with a fully forged 348ci block with a d1 procharger (10psi) 8 rib set up, kenne bell boost a pump, heads, blower cam we put it on the dyno and it put down 651hp and 559tq i has tons more but i down have all of the specs in front of me 
im really excited about getting it. This car is my dream vette!
