tpc trying to do mods with the supercharger to get the drive belt to fit waiting on more updates
 
Why not just get one of the previously referenced kits? There's no point in reinventing the wheel. I would have thought getting the pulley to work is one of the easier issues to address, what with induction, engine management, charge cooling, compression, boost control, back pressure, blower drag, just off the top of my head.
 
ive had turbo boxster s 3.2 but I got turbo lag I can not wait for supercharger kit boxster s 3.2
 
Seen that already but to much turbo lag as someone did twin turbo in USA But small turbo in which I had on my boxster quick 0 to 60 but bigger turbo better top end I've tried both turbos on other cars I've owned in the past I preferd small turbo But supercharger just keep going from the start.

Well not exactly. A supercharger, similar to a turbo, still has an optimum power band. It doesn't have lag in so far as it is always spinning but it can be asthmatic or over boosted (and bled off worthlessly) at different points in the rev range subject to gearing. The more boost you try to achieve the more drag the compressor creates so it isn't power for free in the same way a turbo is. There is a reason 90% of manufactures choose turbos over superchargers.
