A Rotrex may be a bit of a disapointment to people
Get the casing polished? Or even gold anodised?

I don;t think its an issue. If you look at the front mount intercooler on an Evo, it actually covers the whole radiator. Air still gets through.

I'm still more worried about lag.
Is the distance any greater than for an after cooled comptech or vortech?

Certainly it looks as long for most of the turbo set ups wit FMIC's I have seen.

The location of the charger is very different to the jackson racing setup where you can't even see it (no good for Bibbs then ):



Looking at that picture again makes me wonder if the JR charger location would get in the way of the steering column.

Also in the pic in the first post:



Is that a BOV just before the throttle body?

The official distributors for the variable speed supercharger transmission are hese guys http://www.w2wpowertrain.com/t-antonov-2-s...r-drives-2.aspx

It looks cool and could be a very interesting option in a few years:
