I have not used one, but a customer of mine did and absolutely loved it. He did add Snows water injection for engine longevity and i think that is a must have with the SC.
Maybe he will see this and respond - His name escapes me right now.

I'm not sure it will fit under the hood, but the smaller centrifical unit might.
Have you considered a Paxton or Vortech unit?

I'd Love To See Those Pics!

Especially if everything is neatly tucked under the hood.

60703 That would be great to have it all tucked under the hood, right now I wasn't planning on going with a hood scoop. This is my engine almost completed without a blower. My Miata I recently sold had a roots supercharger with meth injection among other things and was so much fun.

I run a small Kenne Bell supercharger on mine and it's a blast to drive. At 5 pounds of boost it puts 400 ftlb to the tires at 2200 rpm and the torque curve makes the car a pleasure to drive. One comment, get the fuel and spark right under boost or you will learn how to change head gaskets in your sleep.
