talk to j-rat......he has a supercharger in the works....... you would need to know the specs of the supercharger to see if its going to produce too much or too little air......what the revs are limited too.....ect..... most superchargers wouldnt work on a rotary....

That might be an Eaton M60 with electric clutch. I had thought about using one so that I could turn the charger on and off. With the M90's max efficiency and produceable boost being so low, I steered clear of the M60.

Kit ain't worth 3000+ imo for such little gain. What about fabbing a setup for a nice BIG blower?

Says $300. But its his money, honestly pay a little bit more and get more.
