supercharger parts, pulleys

I was wondering if people have any links to supercharger fabrication parts. Various cusotm pulley's brackets, etc?

I know its normally not customized as often as turbo's,a nd not as easy either. Im just curious

personally i wouldnt waiste your time..turbos are best suited to a rotarys tourque output.my friend raced a 3 rotor pp with a supercharger at 50 psi and still didnt have much luck with .it eventually got banned for being too loud.when it was muffled it wouldnt rev past 5,000 rpm.and had no power.we are going to run it again someday shortey but only for some fun and cause its a bit different.its not as good as turbocharging.but i always remember paul saying this.... IF YOUR NOT BLOWN...YOUR NOT KNOWN!.he was right about that,it certianley put him on the map.if you want to see his car look up www.blown3rotor.com.au (its still up) and i own the motor now.....

X2 its not worth the pain and you have to make everything for it. I ran a 220 cubic inch blower and driving it a 18000. rpms i got only 25 lbs boost. But nothing revs and sounds like a blower 7 on meth!

Now it just sits in the tralior crying for a turbo.

the speedsource rx8 is doing pretty good, althjough I dont know the specs and the money they put into it. Im sure they have lots of money and did plenty of homework. Then again , they really try to regulate power on road races to create an even playing field
