Why, by the way, isn't the SVX compatible with forced induction?
I was being sarcastic. People who have tried turbos on the EG33 have been disappointed with their initial results and then stopped trying altogether - seemingly with the opinion that it's not possible, or too expensive.

I think it's the latter. Larry's talking about spending quite a bit of money. And anything's possible with enough money applied to lubricate the process.

I agree. Unfortunately, superchargers are so much more rigid in their placement, since either type has to be driven off a belt. Space is already at a premium, so this rigidity only compounds the problems.
