The current PES G2 SC for the 2.8 engine should be easily adaptable to the 3.0...
using a different pulley and of course different software and other minor changes.
The 3.0's intake manifold has essentially the same mounting points as the 2.8's... so I heard. This makes it a simple bolt-on.
I wouldn't be surprised if PES releases a specific kit for the 3.0 engine really soon that is based on the same design and parts that were already developed for the 2.8 for customers that seek instant gratification.
Then maybe in a year or two, a "G3" supercharger will come out exclusively for the 3.0
At least that's what I think.

I'd say it will be a decent amount of time before they'll have the software ready.
I bet they won't have anything for at least 6 months. Just think about all the R&D and testing that the kit will require. Not to mention that they'll have to get their hands on a 3.0. I suspect that they'll concentrate their efforts on the new 1.8T first, and then work on stuff for the 3.0.
