Well apparently if you attended the 2002 SAE Powertrain and Fluid conference (sounds like a blast) then you would have heard a paper discussion on the topic. Apparently didn't pan out as there was very little info on the topic to be found. There is however a patent filed for a hydraulically "assisted" turbo.
And a similar idea has been knocked around on other forums.
