Default New supercharger kit

There is a company here in America that is currently developing a brand new supercharger kit for the early 40v 4.2 V8 timing belt driven engines.

Thanks for doing the screen shot for me.

Kinda strange to see this supercharger setup as the other ones have the blower unit mounted under the intake manifold. Wonder why it's mounted on top?

Apparently there is two blower options for this kit. Eaton TVS 1900 and Eaton TVS 2650.

They don't mention the price, whats in the kit or or even have a website.
It looks like a copy of Pes G2.. and its early days for them in general.
I also wonder how will they support all the different ECU's those cars/engines use.

I think there isn't much information about this kit yet is because it's still being developed. Here is their website but there isn't much there either.
