That's funny sheet, LOL. Now - I'm just throwing this out there, but have you come up with a duct to force-feed the air box, so you have a two-cycle supercharger? It would be a hybrid that doesn't use crankshaft power to turn it, so, in fact it will be more efficient than a turbo. Hmm... How do you hook the throttle on that blower up to the pedal for the engine? Maybe just leave it WOT all the time and throw a wastegate in there.
