wasn't Nitrous used in the Carisma Cerbera?? that should have the same sort of kick as a turbo. Plus there was a supercharged Tuscan Racer for sale on PH a little while ago..... look some people are mad enough !!

I seem to remember mentioning to Andy at APM, in passing, that supercharging would be an interesting option - there's space for it, after all. When he eventually stopped crying with laughter he reckoned the engine would last microseconds before blowing itself to bits.

Andy, if you read this and it wasn't you then I am sorry for misattributing the info but at least it shows we all respect your opinions!!

You could use low pressure turbos without any major mods to the engine.
You could probly do the same with a supercharger as long as you kept the boost down turn it up with no expensive mods and BANG!
