[QUOTE="shiroitenshi, post: 1063358832, member: 27518"] Supercharger has a few types, the rotrex, which looks like a turbo turbine, but the exhaust side, is a pulley, the twin screw, and the Roots type, which is like the twin screw, but different design internally... They look like a normal intake manifold, but bigger. You need to run it off the crank pulley, but our crank pulley usually used by a/c, power steering and alternator.. Not sure how you'd manage to install it on an everyday car with all three accessories, so maybe someone who's done it before can help. The supercharger boost is linear unlike turbos, and there is no possibility of overboost unless you start playing with pulley sizes, so I would think that only a retune of the ECU would be enough. That's all I can help with since I don't have much experience with superchargers. [/QUOTE]
