Because I know a thing or two about the space constraints of that particular car (), I think it would be less of a frustration to go with a centrifugal type supercharger... Vortech, or Rotrex if you have the $$$. Then run methanol injection rather than a intercooler. This way you'd be able to keep everything under the hood, as opposed to cutting a hole in the hood for the 'Subaru' type intercooler.
But then again, I never thought a V6 would fit in there either...* Retired Festiva-er*

ehh superchargers are less efficient... they take hp before they make it.therefore more pressure is needed for the same hp results.. though a supercharger would be interesting good luck with the build i will be watching91L 5 sp, 175k,a/c ,KYB gr2,Fms Lowering springs ,13" konig's ,09 tiburon seats, 7" Pyle in.dash,kicker ds400 all around,Kicker 400.2 powering 2 Kicker cvr 10", 30k hid's, hopeful to find a xr2 to swap b6t from....

Rear turbo sounds pretty logical here. You have no room under the hood and you can chill the intake charge on the way up front. Plus you wont have to worry about a fancy exhaust setup up front.91GL BP/F3A with boost

Not to worry guys, I will not be cutting any holes in the hood, ever, basically whatever I do the cars outer appearance will not change
But sorry I won't be supercharging it, turbo all the way

All I did today was put the flanges on the milling machine at work so the flanges are flat and all the same height

I know that first hand, being the only person to twincharge the KL motor..... but to save complexity, just go turbo, and that lag just might save the tires some, not that you really can save them once your turbo93 Probe GT-Twincharged-11.992@115mph 10lbs
