The only way an electric supercharger would ever work is with a high power capacitor hooked up to a real compressor unit with a huge electric motor... and even then it would only provide bursts of energy for a very short amount of time.... then you have to figure out how to somehow build in a filtered bypass so that it dosn't end up restricting normal airflow when it is not operating. Never mind all the modifications you need to your electrical system to make it even mildy sustainable it would probably end up costing more than a real Turbo anyway.
