It all depends on the power, and powerband you are looking for, you could do a Lysholm QA2089 and have around 300 hp to the wheels, and build boost just above idle, or go bigger like a Kenny-bell 3.2l and be around 650-700 to the wheels, and build boost at idle. It would cost a lot for brackets, and ****, but it can be done! Response would be instant, good for autox, but a good turbo setup would be a lot more efficient! Do what you want it's your car!

there are advantages and disadvantages on either setup. you will rarely see a supercharged evo because an evo came with a turbo so improving/upgrading the turbo is the cheaper route. but if you have the money you can definitely do a supercharger.
