There are some real electric superchargers already available on the market. None of these blowers people pass off on ebay as being a supercharger. Basically they are similar to a vortech supercharger, but are driver by an electric motor. The downside is that they typically run on 42 volts. This would require adding a second alternator to power it, which in the end might actually be easier to do than running an exhaust driven turbocharger.

if youre going to add to the belt why not just put in a vortech?
