Question 2nd gen mr-2 supercharged?

my friend says hes heard of n/a 2nd gen mr-2's (sw20) supercharged aftermarket wise. i dont have time to do research, so has anyone else heard of this? i looked in the eng bay of my car and there doesnt seem to be alot of space for it. i was thinking of buing a 2nd gen jdm turbo rear clip and swapping, but thats a shit load of money that i dont have. so if anyone knows anything about this tell me.

I saw one guy who actually cut into the truck for more space for his turbo charger in the car.

wouldnt work off of a supercharger though b/c superchargers run off the belt.

what would work good on that car is nitrous, from what i understand a 50 shot would be nice for taht motor.

The 5SFE is way to weak for a supercharger. It's not worth the money to even bother with it. There is not enough room in the engine bay for a centrivical or roots style.
