If you are worried about the PSI, probably use a smaller pully, perhaps 2.5-3"?
I guess the Junkyard SC would work as well.. if its not in **** condition im assuming.

Again, I repeat for those of you planning on a drivers side mount, how the hell do you plan on getting to your plugs/oil fillter? Do you really want to have to pull that thing out every time you change plugs/oil?

The only obstruction will be the air inlet on the back of the SC. You would not have to pull the entire SC to access the plugs...it would be about the same as changing the plugs on a 3rd gen.

The only car company that doesn't intercool their factory superchargers is GM, and we all know how great those cars are for performance.
Most S/C'd fords use intercooling (ussally air-to-water). Just look at the new S/C'd jags. Most have a cool setup where the supercharger is inverted (outlet facing up) feeding twin Air-to-Water IC's.
Unless you plan to run alchy/methonal then you really should consider intercooling with ANY forced induction performance car.

hey i just got an m90, as i too am attempting this project on my s4 streetported gxl,
i planned on mounting it in the same fashion as zBrown, but then using a T2 UIM, TB, and TMIC. it looks like the supercharger would feed nicely into the intercooler.
also, how important is it that i run a bypass valve or blowoff valve with this application?

no blowoff valve needed, bypass valve is part of the s/c with the 3rd gen & up eatons I think.

But with a Paxton or Vortech supercharger (one that is belt driven from behind the supercharger itself). When using an appropriate e-fan you should not have a whole lot of clearance issues on the driver's side, and this leads to the idea I have.
You could use an FMIC with the Vortech/Paxton mounted on the driver's side, because you would have to cross the front end anyway.
And NZ, I don't want to be the one to say this, but most factory supercharged cars are not intercooled. The Thunderbird Supercoupe, the Bonneville SSEi, the Grand Prix GTP, the Riviera S/C, and most American supercharged cars are not intercooled. Most supercharged cars intended for drag racing are not intercooled, as the supercharger tends to be bolted directly to the intake manifold.
