Thats not too bad a price for a Rotrex!

How much is it? Can't get on the bay at work. They dont come up secondhand very often either.
Also bear in mind £1420+vat gets you the complete kit which is supercharger, oil tank, oil cooler, oil, hoses etc. If its just the charger you still
need all the other stuff.

From the ad:
ROTREX C30-94 SUPERCHARGER
The 'charger is in excellent condition, it has only covered 1000 miles max as it was replaced for a larger unit. There is no play in the shaft
and everything looks very clean as you would expect. A lot of information can be found on the 'net about these including the full spec etc on
the Rotrex website, I believe this model is designed for 2-4 litre engines but you may want to check that out...
Also included is the oil cooler and pump, which are also in excellent condition

Anyone tried to make one? Durely its just a modified turbo, with a pulley where the exhaust impeller would be?
Kindest Regards,
