Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A forced induction device for an internal combustion engine is provided, which includes a shaft, and a compressor wheel that is threadably mounted to the shaft, and a tool that is configured to engage one or more through bores in the compressor wheel to thread and unthread the compressor wheel onto and off of the shaft. The compressor wheel has a plurality of blades with leading edges that converge at an apex. The apex is aligned with a centerline of the shaft. The tool allows a technician to rotate the compressor wheel relative to the shaft to install or remove the compressor wheel from the shaft without applying any pressure to the blades of the compressor wheel. An associated assembly method is also provided.
