Default willa g60 supercharger work on a civic?

i have a civic delsol with a z6 in it and i waqs wondering if i could make a g60 sc work on the motor, or does it rotate the opposite way? tried the search and came up empty handed. i figure there must be something up since i don't see anyone doing them.

they spin the normal way..........Honda's are backwards.

Problem is they wear quickly,

The G60 powerplant is an awesome engine capable of some serious power outputs, but as most G60 owners are aware, the charger requires regular servicing. Although VW never specified a rebuild/overhaul interval, the bearings and seals within the charger have a lifespan considerably shorter than that of the rest of the engine. As a result the charger should be overhauled on a regular basis, with the interval between overhauls dependant on the charger's state of tune. The following can be used as a rough guide:

Standard Charger and Pulley - Rebuild every 45,000 miles
68mm Pulley - Rebuild every 30,000 miles
65mm Pulley - Rebuild every 20,000 miles

In addition to this the small drive belt that links the main drive shaft with the G60's auxiliary shaft should be renewed annually.
