G60 Valve Cover now rotorcharger

[marc_scirocco at sympatico.ca (Mtl-Marc)]

Nice engine bay!

How about the rotorcharger? How much, how easy? Etc...

I came across the web site <<http://rotorcharged.com/>> a while ago, and
been thinking about this...

Any opinion would be appreciated.

Cheers.

Marc
