Think of it as running 3 starters with 2 batteries.
Constant flow, not proprortional to engine speed.
Sort of like nitrous, only more complicated.
For those who like doing it the hard way.

Some company made this prototype a few years back.
It had possibilities, but too many problems & expenses.
It's NLA.

And a second battery.
And some heavy duty control circuits & relays.
And some custom blow-off control.
And some bypass piping & valving for normal driving.
And some fuel system mods.
Etc..
That's why it didn't sell.

I believe the company your thinking about is TurboDyne. Their charger is different.

They use to market an electric blower known as a TurboPac. Honeywell purchased the rights to the patent, but never manufactured. Turbodyne had to sue Honeywell to regain control of their product. By then the damage was done.
