Supercharged dyno runs are a ton of fun.
I see one very critical thing with that installation that needs to be corrected right away. The head unit needs to be rotated about 90* clockwise so the internal oil pressure and scavange pump will work correctly or the supercharger will fail.
The snail can be reclocked to line up the piping to realign the discharge port once the head unit is properly repositioned. There is a flat bottom on the supercharger and that must be installed within 15* of being level or you should expect a supercharger failure.
Another thing is that a bypass valve should be fitted to control or eliminate that compressor surging problem to prevent damage to the throttle valve and impeller.
If you want any other help or want any info on the Rotrex please contact me.

Not really it has been so long since I have had the car. Did you see the one that I did pre-supercharger? We will probably shoot a lot during our HIN Charlotte trip next month. I will try to get some cool rolling videos and of course some show stuff. Oh I have some video that I shot of Adrian's car at HIN Tampa if anyone is interested in seeing that?
