Somebody has mounted an electric Turbo in his NA 6.2?
Here in Spain,there is some Land rover and similar trucks wich has this sistem and it appears to work good.
Maybe would be a good and not expensive performance for the 6.2 engine.
Regards.

All I know off is electric blowers to temporary raise pressure and power on early 1900's marine diesels and on gas engines.
For modern engines the basic idea off turbo's is to get better efficiency using the energy stored in the exhaust gas to get boost for free.
On the other hand, it should work depending on the amps drawn by the compressor and the capacity off your generator.

Try and you will know.
