The link above is to a supercharger for my 2007 Mazda 3 2.0L. I was wondering if this just attaches to the end of my intake (which is a AEM Cold Air Intake). Guess the main point to this is: Will it work for my car? I also will be buying a hypertech tuner before I get the supercharger.

A supercharger? No, personally I'm not a fan of superchargers as they have too much parasitic drag when at full boil (assuming we're talking about a real supercharger and not the mousetrap discussed at the above link). From my perspective, turbochargers are better and more desirable than superchargers in every aspect except for say zero to ten mph.
The above said, I've been quoted as saying this before, and I'll say it again; if you want a faster car, your best bang for the buck is to sell your car and buy a faster car.

A "real" supercharger will cost you at least $4,000 to have professionally installed. Turbochargers are in that same general neighborhood.
There are no shortcuts.

Well that either means payments on the upgrades (which will usually result in a significant reduction in the value of your car) or payments on the "faster" car. My bet is that you can probably sell your car and buy something like a MazdaSpeed3 of the same vintage for roughly the came cost differential as making your car faster. Then again, a used MazdaSpeed3 won't instantly drop in value the moment you start driving it like your car would if you turbocharged or supercharged it. Net-net, you'll come out ahead by upgrading to a faster car.
