That looks to be the same Autorotor twin screw supercharger kit that has been around for years.....featured and advertised in many a mini magazine.......

Not exactly cheap bolt-on power though.....when i enquired about 5 years ago they wanted about $5k for the kit and said i would have to completely rebuild the engine to suit supercharging as well.....and we know how many $$$ that means.

i have fitted this kit to my mini, which i drive everyday, and have found it to be fantastic. Of course you have to rebuild youre engine to suit, but if you are chasing power then this is going to happen anyway. If you dont get things like the compression ratio right, etc, then by just bolting the kit on you are gonna create a grenade, which wont be fun.

Mini Kompressor, can you give a few more details about your set up?

Like costs associated when you did the upgrade? Rebuild mods you undertook to the engine/ engine bay area to suit.

Thinking along these lines out will depend on dollars and the current engine set up so a bit more information would help.

Thanks
