Default 2002 honda lx f23a4 supercharger questions

I'm trying to to put an amr500 supercharger on my 2002 honda accord. It's the 2.3l ulev vetc, 4-speed automatic. Shes already got a pipe and all that I'm just wondering mislt on the best way to mount it. There's the obvious delete the power steering pump and mount it there but it would be preferred to keep that intact. Just looking to see if anyone has any other suggestions or anything else on this that i should know. Keep in mind im new at this and I'm learning as I go, I'm fairly mechanically inclined but do not know alot when it comes to this kind of stuff. Just looking for friendly advice

Just a note. Your transmission will probably not be adequate for any increase in power. It is barely adequate of the stock motor. Of course, you could get lucky.

there may be other solutions on the market now, but I remember guys pulling Toyota MR-2 remote-mount PS pump units from the junk yard to use on their space-limited swaps. get one of these working then you free up the spot of the original PS pump for your blower.

Agreed. however these cars are in the category now of "have a little fun with it until something blows up" so long as it's not your daily or sole mode of transport.

I'd be more inclined to try a universal nitrous kit on until the "weak link is revealed" since it would be easier to reuse on something else after, less fabrication work and in the end less frustration and cost.
