I have personal experience with these military blowers. I was told they were used to blow up temporary inflatable buildings but that is just hear say. Anyway I used one on my 16HP Kohler pulling tractor and it definitely improved performance. Two of my friends used one on a tube frame dune buggy with a Yammy 350 bike engine. That worked OK too but they spun it faster than it is made for and kept wearing out input shafts.

All that being said, a loop scavenged 2 stroke really cannot be supercharged, it just won't work, too much charge loss and the pressure in the crankcase cannot be brought above atmosphere because of the porting. The tuned pipe is really the only way to supercharge one of our two strokes and it isn't really supercharging but is works great as many of us know.

I can say one thing though Carl, it will be the coolest kart around!!
