With the exception of the electric supercharger - why has there not been any leaps in compact turbo or supercharger kit builds? that would be in the under $3,000 price range? Is it just not realistically possible? Would the power increase just not be sufficient enough? Are we at the golden age of conventional Turbo/SC so there isn't much to capitalize on? (hopefully that is comprehensible sorry haha)

I guess there are only so many things you can do and everything has been R&D'd and this is where we are at today?

Also, why isn't anyone creating a pulley/electrical charge system or exhaust/electrical charge system? So its reducing heat, but still able to spool up the charger in two different ways at the same time? i.e. a hybrid-like FI ?

I have some capital if anyone would care to take on a project like that with me I just don't have near the amount of knowledge as some of ya'll
