2007 S-Type R (71km)
Installed the supercharger upgrade kit successfully. By coincidence, the local O'Riely's had a water pump in stock so that was replaced also. Overall the replacement was not that difficult. It was good that the belt routing images were available on the internet for both the serpentine and supercharger belts. I used a 1/2 inch breaker bar for the supercharger belt tensioner and a 3/8 inch breaker bar for the serpentine belt tensioner rather than the special belt tensioner tool.
My method required the coolant to be drained because the coolant expansion tank and the thermostat housing were detached for easy access. I was surprised how much coolant went onto the floor when the water pump was removed. Should have had a catch pan under the vehicle.

Ready to put the expansion tank back in place
