Nothing too dramatic, it's wanted for a project involving a 1.7litre Volvo engine.

Couldn't you use a turbocharger?

Renault supplied the Volvo 1.7 turbocharged engine - if I have been informed correctly.

Check tho' eh?

The vovlo 480 (as in the avatar) was certainly availabel with a turbo engine, don't know what size it was though.

Indeed, they do make a turbo, however I wanted to supercharge mine instead. The turbo units in the B18FT (M) engine are not a very high boost only a T2. Also I think a supercharger will utilise the way the 1.7 Volvo engine produces power quite well. Cheers for the replies!
