I won't actually mount it to the intake, but rather mount it 'above' the transmission of the motor. The output of the Supercharger
will go to the intercooler and then return to a custom plenum which will feed the Throttle bodies. As for driving it, I would have to fabricate a
pulley mount that would replace the bolt on the crankshaft end where the 'rotor' attaches. The biggest difficulty here I think would be to
create a decent oil seal for the mount where it passes thru the cover. Perhaps a bearing that fits into a rubber bushing that would replace the
'thread in' cover.

Brian,
Do you have thebook written by Joe Haile:
Turbocharging, Supercharging and Nitrous Oxide?
The quality of the information is second to none!
This is were a student turbo charged his Kawasaki 750 using stock compression/pistons using a Garrett T2 and did all the stuff himself. The result is
150bhp motor at 6psi!!
There are loads of valuable diagrams and its designed purely for bike engines
Another interesting site is this: www.situne.com an Escort Mk2 with a turbocharged Fireblade engine. There are some interesting videos and the guy
from Norway (I think) homebrewed his turbo. Weighing in at 700kg the car performs really well

Lowering Compression
Just a note.
I just received an email from a guy with a Turboed R1 bike who is using doubled up head gaskets to reduce compression. The resulting compression is
10.1 to 1.
He has run the bike for 9500 miles at .7 bar with no problems.
Cool..

Bump
Any more ideas about this ?
I want to supercharge an injected R1 to get more torque low down. However I don't want to spend more than a hayabusa would cost. So an Eaton M45
would fit my (future) middy perfect. But I need to make room for it during design of chassis (now).
So the question is, will it boost enough to make worthwhile ?
Cheers
