Supercharging the MX-3

Instead of turboing the MX-3 (K8 or KLZE) why not Supercharge... it's something I have been thinking about doing mainly because the lack in our engine bay to but a turbo, that and a Supercharger has less to hook up, like no exhaust pipe going to it etc... like a turbo has to have.

I've seen it only once in a car..it was Jeff Abram's car..you could do that but there's a lot of custom work to do like the shaft...he had a good explanation on how to do it on his site...www.mazdamaniac.com butr his site is down for now...
I would be a good idea but would be less efecient than a turbo

I had an Idea... I head about a Electric Supercharger... (might have been on another thread) but what if I threw that infront of the Turbo and hooked the supercharger with a toggle switch that way I could spool up the turbo faster... how does that sound?

well if you are talking about those cheapo electric fans on ebay forget about it...the turbine will spool way faster then the fan..and if the fan fails (maybe one of the blades won't hold) you can say good bye to your turbo as the blades will be sucked in ... :nono:
