In my efforts to kill this engine I've started to design a few bits to slap a small charger on, this was the easy bit, but also I got it right on the first print, which is rare for me.

I'd run it for the prototype, just for funsies, until a shop can make the real part or the plastic breaks. It might last longer than you think.

    If it was for something smooth like an alternator, i'd give it a try too, but this supercharger will take a fair bit of power to turn at 11000rpm and the pulses/vibration will kill PLA+, PA-CF I reckon would take the abuse easly, but the pulley faces would need smoothing or it would eat the belt.
