I thought of possibly spraying something in there before, but then realized it probably wouldn't work well (or even be a good idea due to it having to go through the supercharger). Some old-school carb cleaner is what initially came to mind. If the intercooler is off, then I imagine some engine degreaser or maybe even Simple Green would work.
