Imperial Mini, and their MCS Recharger

Hi folks, I'm interested in the MCS Recharger kit that Imperial Mini sell -

http://imperialmini.nyana.us/products/

The Order Online link is not functional, and Imperial Mini aren't responding to emails.

Does anyone have a contact there?

Or perhaps does anyone have a kit to sell?

Thanks

There is a thread about someone doing this themselves to their supercharger. Have to take it fully off to install of course. But then changing the oil is easy.

That says $338? For Supercharger oil, and those tools? that makes no sense. His instructions say to take it off as well.

The MCS Recharger kit in the link is to install a permanent access port that allows you to check the quality of the SC oil, as well as change it periodically without having to remove anything from the engine. Pretty cool for us OCD types. Seems the company is no longer operating, though, a shame.
