Those who daily drive their cars will probably have this on their minds because at least here in Chicago we still use salt to melt snow and we all know how bad salt is.
I wouldn't worry too much about it. The supercharger sits in place of the alternator, and the alternator has a openings in the case to aid in heat dissipation, so if that doesn't have any issues i can't see where the 100% sealed supercharger would have any problems.

Now that being said ... since i'm originally from the midwest and have been to chicago in the winter i have two words ... WINTER BEATER! its far cheaper than the damage you could do to the poor Z.
