I can highly recomend a Lexus V8, all 32 valves of it, silky smooth, oooooodles of power, grrrrrrreat grunt , reliable, (only had to change the windscreen wipers after 12k miles of hard driving) completely understressed and a lightweight alloy block. Good for 28mpg too !

Where's that 300 bhp ARR beast at the minute

What 300bhp ARR beast?, there might be a 300bhp ART beast...

I though Mr Dell (viva el presidente!) is fitting one of these superchargers to his new engine... Or has he changed his mind

He's got to fit the engine first..

Yup, that's the right one but the vendor doesn't state whether it's a C30-84 (200-320bhp) or C30-94 (250-400bhp) so have sent him a message. The 84 is a bit small and anything less would be next to useless for a GTA.

The problem with putting a centrifugal blower like that on the V6 turbo is it will only run around 8-10psi max and wont come on boost early like a turbo (eg, 14psi at 3000rpm). The boost on the rotrex rises exponentially with revs, so you will get say 8psi at 6000, 4 psi at 3000...

That's right, putting this blower on a GTA turbo would be pointless. The compression is too low and you probably end up with less power than standard. Ideally it should go on a higher compression normally aspirated engine (like the one it's coming off !) and run about 0.7 bar

If possible, but not easy
