Thanks everyone for their patience - some pics at last! As you can see, the most important parts of the kit are there - bracket, pulleys and the supercharger unit. Pipework to come obviously (CAI to s/c, s/c to existing pipework), and the belt needs to be put on, but with those in place, it's tune and away!
  To clarify, this is not my car, but it is the first customer car being used at the prototype mule for the kit. I've been told two more weeks or so to finish it off and it'll move into production.

Besides, got to get these brakes on first before I start adding that sort of extra power.

I reckon an EA EEC-IV airbox would almost fit to make it look a little like stock.

If I didn't have to pay off my car so much right now I'd be strpping one of these on as soon as I could. I've wanted a supercharger ever since I got my car, guess I'll have to wait till about half way through next year
 : By the way the supercharger looks nice and neat so far. |

Project looks good, is there discounts for Group buys? The bracket would suit a BA I6 wouldn't it?

5k still isn't bad....
altho i'm very sceptical about this AU kit being $3500.... or it might be that.. but still need to buy lots more stuff on top of it.... all other kits on that site are over 5k or more.... |

I think Raptor is a more viable choice than the CAPA stuff, just for pure ease of installment.
3500 is a very good deal so it should be interesting what transpires.
