Several  problems. Belt driven superchargers put a side load on
the front main bearing and a bending load on the e-shaft.

They burn more gas than a turbocharger as the turbocharger
recovers some of the waste HP in the exhaust to compress the intake
air. It always takes HP to compress air. Not just a bad idea...It is the
law
of physics :)

They are heavier and larger than a turbocharger.

Hi Jean, if you are going to use a supercharger, the rotrex is probably
your best option. Just look at the size difference between the roots type
and the rotrex.
Here's the item number for a currently running eBay auction:  130600764800
ends on Nov 19.
