You'd probably be better off getting a G60 or Ralleye

I don't have any experience personally but what mk2 do you have now? If its a 16v I've seen Eaton Superchargers fitted, they are the same type that is fitted to the 2003+ Mini Cooper S models. I also think that you can supercharge pretty much any engine, it just has to cope with the compression. Talk to companies such as:

http://www.dubsport.net/ (although i can't browse thier site)

Hope they can help, and good luck, nice to see different ideas!

i have an 8v now. and same as you ive heard you can fit almost any charger to it,heard cooper s been said as well. had a mate that charged his mini and he said you couldnt keep it straight through the gears!!! but he never bothered with waste gate, so it didnt last long :undecided:it would be good to have something as nuts as that :grin:
