In terms of plumbing wouldn't a supercharger be slightly easier to set up. Specifically a roots style blower. I know RR racing has one on there probe and the install looks super slick. There isn't much room in our engine bay to begin with. If there are intercooler pipes and turbo exhaust pipes running around under the hood it would become fairly crammed in my humble opinion. You could keep a roots blower down around 5 or 6 psi and see some nice gains across the entire powerband. Ofcourse then there is the question of mounting the drive belt system...is there a detailed write up anywhere of supercharged KLs?? I assume most guys who do supercharge go with a roots blower but have you guys heard of anyone running a centrifugal (spelling??) system??
