there was a guy a while back that did an electric supercharger in a way that was viable (thomas knight) though he has kind of fallen into obscurity. his kits were like $2500 and came with no management. he used a bank of batteries in the trunk that had to be recharged so it was almost like nitrous as in you had a difinitive time before refueling the system.

his also had a constant CFM so the boost would go down as the RPMs went up. his dyno graphs were almost flat. you would get boost and go to a certain hp and just stay there to redline but the PSI would drop as the RPMs would rise.

All that is really old though and I haven't read anything about it in a while. The separate power supply I think is the key and the blower with a huge CFM with the capability of holding a high enough PSI. Even then, it is limited by charge of external batteries.
