I saw this car at SEMA last year. The supercharger is electronically powered.

The set-up was huge and did not look very efficient and used a ton of power. I asked some questions and was promised a detailed email and never got one.

I don't how reliable this set-up would be.......

There was a company protyping a true electric supercharger (forgot the company name) not those Ebay peice of cr@p intake restrictors. It could only boost for 14 or 15 seconds at time if I remember correctly before it lost it's charge. But yeah on the current electrical system it's not very efficient, it'd take 2-3 hours to charge the system back up. When the new car requirements bumps up the electrical system to 24v or whatever this should be an interesting option.

The dynograph looks horrible for a twincharged vehicle. Looks more like the graph of a car with a bigger turbo more than anything...

*edit* he says he's never even dynoed the car
