Here is my take on it:

The car is already setup to be turbocharged, it already has a t2 model, No point in wasting your time SC, unless you just want to be different. Why spend thousands to have supercharged 220rwhp? You could be there in a second with a t2 at alteast half the cost. The setup is also akward, a rotary engine with its high redline can easily overspin SC, and wear out their bearings, SC are made to run on low revving engines. Rotaries and turbos are made for each other, since they have such a high exhaust output they can spool larger turbos and spool them faster.

how much has your swap cost you so far with a used engine,turbo

and drivetrain and not even a FMIC?

I agree SC is not worth it...The turbo motor is the only logical choice to SC but why take off the turbo to SC... BTW in the fastest classes of sportsman drags... IE NOT NHRA... the turbos are kickin NOS & SC cars ass.... Ask Pat Musi... He when from BB Chevy on NOS to TT... and is faster and more reliable.... Turbos are " free horsepower"... IE no Sc to turn... It robs power
