Yes there will be some power lost due to belt driven but it will more than make up for it when boost kicks in. As far as I heard of anyways (I could be wrong) but with this type of sc (positive displacement roots type) power is linear so torque comes in from down low so good for a little street cred. Its not like you can drag everyone on the street.
Centrifugal superchargers are like turbo , very good for drag specially but may also have lag characteristics like turbo albiet this days apparently lag are very minimal.
As for why supercharging cant be done to an auto, I realy dont know why we even questions this, I am sure there have been at least one factory supercharged auto out there.

If your looking for any brand factory Auto blower.. look atta Holden Commodore.. they used the Eaton S/C on thier 3.8 v6s, and plenty of them are Auto..
RippModds in America were doing Auto Supercharged Lancers, i think you'll find they have thier own forum in here, under the Vendor Section...

Hey, yes larger that life!! Check out the new 4G15 kit on www.raptorsc.com.au
I don't come to this forum much, but yep still around. Our product is getting a slight revamp in that the compressors will now get housing with HKS styling (like T51R turbo) and some other updated components.

Thanks for the encouragement.
The Lancer 1.8 is going for a 13 sec quartermile this Friday night, trying to increase the traction enough to make it happen, whether we get the grip remains to be seen. We have gotten down to a 14.016 so far on stock everything suspension wise............ tyres, struts, swaybar/s etc etc.
Anyhow if we do I will let you all know

There are full plug ins from Wolf and Haltech now. You could check them out as well.
Went to the local test and tune, all runs were between 100.15 - 100.22 mph and 14.01 - 14.05. Just can't beat the wheel spin on stock tyres and suspension. 13 is so close but will need slicks to do it. Always good to see the car staying consistant year after year tho
