I guess you have already trawled ausrotary? anyhow, there is a good thread in the owners rides section of a guy who has put a superchargr onto a 12a in a first gen. Right enough it isnt a weber and it runs on lpg but the basic blower onto a rotary is there. It is a really interesting concept as most people seem to have gone for the easier route of turbocharging. What sized blower were you thinking of?
Have you considered the option of a draw through turbo set up with a carb? Quite simple and delivers good power for the amount of money spent!?
cheers, michael.

Not concidered any other options yet, still waiting to get the car on the road but its nearly there, can get my hands on a Eaton M90 the one used on a XKR/XJR so its a big un, just looking trough ausrotary now

quick boost with blowers, nice cool inlet temps, no spiking or overboosting probs, and nice smooth power every time.
I bet it would make the engine run a lot cooler without a big cherry red turbo under the hood!
Go for it mate :Thumbsup!
that blower must flow a fair wack of air to feed a big jag with the power they make.
would make good power on a 13b.

you might find a 45 is a little small if its being used in "suck through" on a blower ?

48\'s are the norm on N/A 13B\'s
