With nowadays technology, I don't see how Electric turbo Charge is a viable option.

if the turbo is not efficient enough, it is just an obstacle to the engine.

However the new Tech Subaru is developing is Hybrid Turbo.

1/ Using High Quality Battery to hold more charge and more Current
2/ Using New Turbo design that have Motor in the Housing of the Turbine Shaft
3/ At WOT under Load on Low RPM, the ECU Signal the Motor which will Immediately Pull the Turbo to suck in air (No turbo Lag)
4/ After a short Period of time (seconds), or until the turbo is selfsufficient, the Turbo will rely on Exhaust gas to drive itself, and continue to suck air in
5/ The battery will be recharged as the engine continue running
6/ If the Battery charge is not enough to run the Turbine shaft, the Turbo will work as regular turbo with Turbo Lag.
