Simple answer is no.It could be done but in the end it would be cheaper to just buy a blower made for your car.FYI there are a couple KB 1.7 on ebay right now and the bids are only $3500+.
 
simple common sense...

save the blower whine you're probably looking for till AFTER you upgrade your internals...adding a blower with stock internals means you're just asking for trouble.

Learn from other's experience...beef your motor, get some nice heads and cams, and THEN put a blower on it...you'll be much happier in the end.

Isn't the problem that there isn't an intake manifold for the eaton to bolt up to a 2v ?

There are manifolds that will work, the problem is getting one. Saleen, Roush, and even KB all have intakes that could be made to work with a custom adapter plate, but none of them will sell the intake separately.

Someone using common sense would not have made that statement, as there are many people who run supercharger on the stock bottom end with no issues. Conservative boost and tune are the key.

And some are even running 450-530rwhp on stock internals.

Don't hear mention of the intercooler brick in there anywhere? You won’t make near the horsepower you’d like without the use of some form of cooling the intake charge. You could rig up some sort of water/methanol system, but you’re still left with the need to build a custom intake manifold and inlet to accommodate the M112 itself. Your best bet is to try to resell to do your best to recoup your losses, or start saving up for a set of late model 4V heads, timing cover and other components to convert your engine over to a DOHC…..which isn’t going to be cheap either.

I'd personally sell it off, start over and consider it lesson learned. :)
