Im currently collecting bits up ready to supercharge in the winter im fitting a eaton 90 to a m20b28 now the question I have is - has anyone any idea how I get round idle control? Obviously the charger will be spinning/boosting at idle running of the crank pully now would this effect the idle as im envisioning it idleing high also what management would anyone recommend?

any stand alone management should be adaptable enough for you to get a decent idle with. and depends how handy you are with wiring ect but megasquirt is an option.

Why not turbo? Size it properly and it won't be laggy and does away with the huge pumping losses a supercharger suffers from

If I run megasquirt I can build this supercharger set up with tuning for under 1100... itd be double at least to turbo.
