The the Eaton type chargers deliver the boost in a different manor to the G-Lader, that is to say that they are good/better at higher RPM's, due to the fact that they rely on fast moving of a small volume, aposed to the G-lader which shifts a larger volume a little slower, in which case your ECU MAP and Std G40 Cam woundn't get the best out of it.  Another thing to consider is that because they compress the air in twin helix screw type arrangement, they produce more heat, in which case you need to look at fitting a larger intercooler(or chargercooler or even water injection system).

To answer your question, yes, it'll work, but but it won't be efficient without other work being done and could result in your engine running lean on top end(which will kill your internals). So no then ???

REMAP is a definate I'd say, even with proven know mods its differcult to get the best out of any set-up with an of the shelf MAP, so keep it in mind for your budget.

I don't think there's anywhere you can buy eaton fitting kits anymore.  AWTracksport used to do them but I'm not sure they still do, plus the strength of them was questionable.  But it might be your only option if yo ucan't either make something yourself or pay an engineer some money to design and make it.

mine has a full blend g40 g-lader at the moment.  Converting it to use a k03 turbo over winter though, have been gathering parts for this for a while.

I should be getting a PSD eaton kit very shortly so i could take measurements of the brackets to hold the charger should anyone need some decent measurements.
