I saw that price on one of their US dealers also + about $100 for the oil cooler.
Don't know much about superchargers ... where would you drive this thing from? ie. what's on the other end of the belt?

Saw these guys at the SEMA show and these things indeed a nice, compact size. It'd be very easy to make up a mounting bracket; very similar to a crawler box idea. You can clock it anyway you like. I'll post up a picture of how one is mounted on a Honda engine once I download them from the camera.
Does anyone know how many grooves are on a TRD supercharger pulley? Rotrex needs a pulley with 8 grooves.
The dude from Denmark stated that this supercharger is very quiet since it used traction fluid for coupling with a mechanical efficiency of around 97% and an AR of about 80&. Unfortunately, they're getting their feet wet in the U.S. market so they don't have any plug and plays for the LCs just yet. Another company called Wheel to Wheel are making systems for the small block V8s and V6s.
Wheel to wheel also has a 2 speed supercharger. I didn't get to talk to these guys much but it sounds like it's an automatic 2 speed. Might be worth looking into just for s***s and giggles!

Wheel 2 Wheel is the US distributor from what I understand when talking to them.
Is the two speed rotrext you talking about the one from Antonov? Not sure if it's production ready...from what I read, Antonov is kinda like a think tank, intelligent capital, type of company. Looks interesting though!
Your photo links are not working

Very nice, I think you should build the system for Simone's that way when you are putting it back together from the HG replacement, you'll really get a seat of the pants improvement. And since you are at SEMA, get the hook up man. Then when you have it all together and figured out, I can build mine
