C20XE Supercharged, anyone done or seen one?
Has anyone seen a supercharger install on a C20XE?
I spotted a few on youtube but none with any info or any fitted to a kit car
What type and size of charger is best?
I`ve been brought up on a healthy diet of turbo charging but know very little about a charged install.
I was looking at buying a C20LET and strapping the charger on there.
Can anyone help at all?

Likely 6psi :-)
Regardless it'll take 5 mins for the wee compressor to pressurize the Tubing , the Intercooler and finally the engine.

So forgive my ignorance as i don`t know anything about superchargers, do they pipe up the same way as a turbo etc?
Apart from the obvious fact that its pulley driven rather than exhaust gasses.
One pipe into plenum chamber, one from air inlet/filter.
What else is to be considered?
I will be using a Mini Supercharger.
