Try CVEPerformance.com they are just finishing a turbo kit on a Vitara, and have done Supercharger, Turbo and Nitrous kits on just about anything.
They are in Skye, near Carrum Downs, about 15 - 20 mins from you.

dude if you want a high performance vehicle stop trying to tur the Vitara into one. Once you supercharge it, you then have to worry about keeping it cool, then you have to worry about stopping it with a better braking systme, then you have to make sure the extra power doesn't bust stuff throughout the drivetrain, then you have to worry about is it legal and insurable.
Buy a vehicle that is a sports car if you want ahigh powered thing, Vitaras aren't sports cars

Sam at overkill did a supercharger on a Baleno motor(in a sierra)
I think the charger was from a small toyota motor !!

What happend to my other post
----
SC12 Is the Toyo charger
A T25 Turbo would be about the right size for what you need...
You are going to have to inject it either way tho if you want boost

You can run a Carb either way, turbo or supercharger.
Have you enquired thru the link for

an intercooler wont increase air flow but it will cool the air down going into the motor that will produce more horse power
