That's not a supercharger. That looks like one of those "electric superchargers" here in North America, that basically create a vortex when the air is inhaled through the intake. So that it changes the velocity and speed the air enters the engine. Not worth wasting your money on that.

Please dun waste the money. Electric Air chargers just create obstructions in your intake. Imagine u have a 2l engine (for simplicity), at 2000 rpm your engine is taking in air at a rate of approx 16.6 litres per sec. That's equivalent to 11 coke plastic bottle(1.5l) every sec. unless the air charger can supply that amount of air, it is simply obstructing your engine.
