i'm talking about a 1971 superbeetle and i'm in the process of putting a turbo on a 2500cc motor but i was just wondering if it was possible to put a supercharger on one b/c that would be a little insane

Run turbo. S/C rob horsepower, especially on the scale you're doing it. You're not gonna put on a huge S/C to run a 800hp car so use a turbo, more efficient. Unless you can find a S/C kit for your exact car.

For that I have no idea. You can essentially put a turbo on anything if you can get the fabrication right and the tuning done.

Hopefully someone else on the board might be more familiar with that application
