It'll be great when the CLs get cheap enough that people are willing to make them a project car and start experimenting.

The SHO has one also but it'd be interesting to see what kinda numbers a roots style supercharger would make.

Screw the roots blower. (Get it? lol)

Wouldnt be too hard to rig up something like the comptech uses with a shaft that runs the length of the engine and put a rotrex in the the same spot the comptech uses and a side mount intercooler in the factory airbox slot, or an air-water exchanger at the very least. The rotrex matches the Honda linear powerband very well, and is absurdly more efficient than a whipple or a roots....not to mention they're damn near bulletproof.

Should'nt be to hard for any fabricator to accomplish this mod,only problem I would see would be finding a good matching cam setup.power would be pretty simular to the comptech,but I bet a big twin screw charger setup like this would be badass till you killed the motor.
