Why get a supercharger when they have plenty of turbos for that car.

simple its cuz . no one has done it before! (thats what i think..maybe someone already done this?). Plus I only want 400hp for Daily driving. And superchargers are very dependable only minor drive belt replacement every 30k-35k miles. As for turbo, driven daily or driven hard. the turbo needs to be replaced every 45k-50k. but i heard turbos can last 75k mile if very well-maintained! but for me maintainance for me is like when i every feel or get to it!

why not!
I always feel i have to be different!
thats all..

Watch out for belt wear - it all depends on your usage. My last SC belt on my blower lasted slightly less than 2,500 miles!!! That's probably resultant of the high rpms my Eaton M62 sees, due to a 3" pulley, but never the less, I doubt you'll be able to get 30K to 35K miles per belt. However, belt replacement is a lot simpler than turbo system maintenance.
