You can get plenty of Eaton chargers off ebay but they really arn't all
that efficient.
If money isn't really a problem hunt down an old Shorrock, these old
things made minis fly.

A little more info here

Link Automotive in Melbourne Australia build the kits using a swedish Askrow
twin screw supercharger. Superoir to the Sharrocks in that they don't share
the oil with the engine and gear box. Thye runa  sealed unit with internal
lubricant.

I have one on my car, been running it now since 1998 with no probelms. Done
about 45,000 k with it one and other than redoing the head about 12 months
ago had no issues. Costs about $5000AUD approx. Just google their website,
look for Link Automotive
