Default Turbo/supercharged 4.2 ajv8

Here’s a good question for everyone

I have a Jaguar AJV8 4.2 supercharged engine which I am converting to manual transmission and using the setup in my Nissan s15 drift car.

Has anybody ever done or looked into or know anything about turbocharging this engine so it is both turbocharged and supercharged?

It’s something I’ve been thinking about for some time now and not sure how feasible or beneficial it would be.

Any ideas or knowledge would be great

Thanks
Ben

It's likely either to make it worse or destroy the engine unless you know what you're doing. Not trivial. Instead, fit a larger SC as avos has done.
