i loved mine the nice whirring sound and no lag, constantly running

although that looks more like an induction kit with a fan on than what i know as a supercharger!

I'm afraid its just a piece of JUNK, will do nothing for you.

 

Supercharger forces air into the manifold like a turbo charger but its run from the engine not the exhausts, i.e it runs off a crank pully along with everything else (me thinks)

Put simply, supercharger is an air pump that forces air into the engine. As the power of an engine is dependent upon the volume of air that can be fueled and burnt in the cylinders, supercharging is a vastly superior method of induction than allowing the engine to suck its fill of air, as even with the most efficient engine it will not suck enough to fill the cylinders. A supercharger is similar to turbocharger insofar as it acts as an air pump; the crucial difference being a supercharger is a mechanically driven pump whereas the turbocharger uses the power of hot exhaust gases to power the pump.

that is what a supercharger looks like
