Bought this Supercharger off Ebay.
It's supposed to be of a V6 Mitsubishi engine but don't know which one.
Any Ideas...
Cheers.

As soon as I saw the pics, I knew I had seen it before... In this article :

It looks to be off a 6G71.

Mitsubishi 6G71
Here’s a relatively uncommon supercharger.
In 1987, Mitsubishi Japan released a supercharged version of the 6G71 2.0-litre SOHC V6 to the local market. Fitted as an option in the Debonair luxury saloon, the supercharged 6G71 uses a Mikuni labelled supercharger and water-to-air intercooler to deliver 110kW and 221Nm of torque.
The 6G71’s blower unit is an intriguing one. Unlike most supercharged engines with a V-configuration, the Mitsi blower is mounted off the front cylinder bank of the transverse V6. The rear of the supercharger also connects to an aluminium snout that incorporates the throttle body. A supercharger bypass valve is also fitted (see pic). Blower body dimensions are 29cm x 19.5cm x 14cm.
This is a rare blower and, given it is fitted to a mild 2.0-litre 110kW engine, we’d be reluctant to push it past about 150kW.
