I think if you had a correct sized variable vane turbo it would make the ESC pretty useless.

On this car with a smallish turbo like the AVO/Greddy/etc. above 3000RPM you are going to make more boost than the electric SC almost instantly so it becomes kind of meaningless except at very low RPMs.

With a large turbo I would use it to keep the turbo spooled off-boost but things start to get complicated pretty quickly.
