The title says turbo, then he says supercharged with a rootes-type whipple supercharger. Odd

I thought the whipple chargers were all twin screw types? (and therefore a damn sight more efficient)

Definitely not the more popular and better 'known' TPC supercharger kit, which comes with an Eaton M90 rootes charger and either no intercooler or a water-air chargecooler.

As such it appears to be a bespoke oddity - if the Whipple is a twin screw then they're much better supercharger units anyway, and heat the charge less so requiring less intercooling... potential for much more power.

However with a non-standard kit you're probably only worth buying it if you're local to Autofarm, get on well with them and are prepared to have them service it. Either that or you're geared up well at home to play with it yourself.

If it's well engineered (and I've normally only heard good stuff about Autofarm) then it may be good - after all 993s respond very well to supercharging, it makes them very nice to drive
