Supercharged Injected Sprite

I picked it because I want to make and sell kits. I figured the 1500 was a good option because their US spec carbs are pretty much universally hated, and, because they share their engine with the Spit, it's a 2 for 1 development deal for me.
 
There are several kits in Denmark based on the Rotrex supercharger, more in DE, SE and UK. It's advantage is size, about a quarter of that screw type compressor. Disadvantage is that it's a turbine compressor, though mechancially driven. See here for products. Though I prefer the efficiency of the screw type, it does crowd the engine compartment. Thus comments like "Snake pit".
