Superchargers and Sequentials

[Ballistic Banana]

Just been reading the article in this months Evo for about the 5th time:
The new TVR Typhoo is to have a supercharger.
Can anyone explain to me in Layman Terms how a Supercharger works, where its likely to sit on the 4ltr S6, on the pic on page 70 could you point it out.

Also, I know that The Typhoo sequential Box is still in Developement, and quite alot of other vehicles have them, Been told before but cant remeber how it works.

TIA
