Do the impellers break?
So far on the fantasy supercharger list:
Build a mk1 mx5 with standard (production) bits such as supra injectors to get around 200bhp;
Modern gtv 2.0 twin spark with a blower....but then I fancy a guilia (original) with modern twinspark running gear. Would the blower fit under the hood?
BMW 318is (the baby M3?) in to an E30 base model 316 so there is no sunroof and drop the 318 16v out of an E36 in with the blower as well...Arm chair pondering is difficult....

A lot of Mercedes 200 and 230 Kompressors with Eaton chargers in have seen the scrapyard in recent years. Usually through rust, but the superchargers also go - the bearings fail and then the impellers hit each other. Or so Wheeler Dealers showed me :-)
