E9x 328 Superchargers - What's out there?

What superchargers are there available for us? We know of some, but does anyone know of anything else? Any future projects or products?

1. Arma- it's out, couple installs, waiting for reviews
2. MMW- Gavin's and ISSABMW effort, Vortech based, close, expected soon
3. VF Engineering- they have kits for previous generations, ? Something for us soon
4. ESS Tuning- they have a hand held tuner and twin screw superchargers for previous generations, ? will they adapt one to fit E9x series?
5. Schaper Automotive- see web page, due soon
6. YJK- Rotrex brand, intercooled FMIC, bigger injectors, oil pump for SC, computer, chinese based
7. Anyone else?

Does anyone have any info to add?

ESS emailed me and they have no plans at this time for a E9x twin screw supercharger kit.

VF maybe have something in October.

9K Euros before shipping. Thats what, around 13K US? The Euro is kicking our ass right now. Makes me wish I still lived in Germany though. I could use my VAT form and get the VAT removed.

The YJK kit looks good IMO. You just need a proper tune to correctly integrate with the car's behavior after the supercharger.

Is that a giant computer chip? Hopefully they didn't use that poisonous paint like they do on the toys...

YJK claims that the performance chip can be used alone on almost every model of car with gain from 10-15 hp...
I seriously doubt it.

Wouldn't that be something if it had a similar noise to the VXR8 Bathurst S? That would rock. Everyone would buy it.
