Supercharger
A Roots-type supercharger has been adopted, providing high output power and increased torque.
The supercharger compresses intake air by using rotational force from the pulley to drive a pair of 4-lobed rotors which are mounted on 2 parallel shafts and linked by gears.
The supercharger assembly has been provided with a bypass valve vacuum actuator which prevents the supercharging pressure from exceeding a specified value.

Intercooler
A water-cooled intercooler is built into the supercharger assembly.
The intercooler lowers the temperature of the intake air that was compressed by the supercharger, further improving intake efficiency.

Sub Radiator Assembly
To cool the intercooler, a sub radiator assembly has been provided.
Electric Water Pump Assembly
In order to circulate coolant throughout the intercooler cooling system, a small, lightweight and highly efficient electric water pump assembly has been adopted.
