anyone ever tried to turbo charge or supercharge a bus engine? anyone know if they sell turbochargers or superchargers for bus engines. I have heard of the judson supercharged engines but i dont think they still make those. I think it would be pretty neat to have a turbo 914. Just imagine looing at the back of a 914 "914 turbo" I've got a few bus engines sitting around here and a few engine-less 914. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif)

You'll have to get very creative to come up with a way to drive the supercharger. The firewall at the front of the 914's engine bay tilts back, and may interfere with any decently-sized belt and pulley arrangement. You may be able to go off to the side, but you will likely have to relocate various engine bay items (heater blower, battery tray, ECU, maybe the relay board, depending on where you go and how much room you need) to do that.
