Supercharger To-Do

[Sunchaser]

Well if youve seen my other post my supercharger is currently out to be rebuilt and wont be back for sometime due to the california fires. Is there anything worth replacing while the blower is out? More due to age than miles. Truck is at 90k miles roughly 80k supercharged. Intercooler is a bit dirty but not that bad. Any easy ways to clean it without pulling? Should i replace the alternator while its easy to get to? Doing an extremely solid baseline while i wait. Thanks! 2014 gen 1 supercharged.

Is the rebuilder giving you the new O-ring and gasket kit to reinstall the compressor?

Yes, new throttle body gasket, bypass gasket, intercooler gasket and there is a couple others im probably forgetting. Shop didnt want it taking up bay space so i took it home and i plan on reinstalling myself.

I seem to recall reading that the supercharger needs to be removed to install headers...

The supercharger takes up a lot of space so id imagine thats the case. I was more looking for basic maintenance i should do because its out. The entire exhaust system has already been done
