A friend once told me he prefered superchargers instead of a turbo because he considered it less complex than turbocharging.

I have a AEM FI/C-6 with a custom Boomslang Harness that will be controlling Toyota camry injectors (255cc vs 145 stock) to keep me from running lean, or stressing the stock ones over 80% duty cycle. The injectors are the exact physical size as OEM Insight ones and are plug and play to the OEM harness. It will also allow me to fool the stock O2 sensor and MAP sensor so the stock ECU isn't fighting me to control fuel under boost, but runs normally under non-boost conditions.
In my country it used to be more usual to add an extra fuel injector to enrich the air/fuel ratio under boost, in a way that could be considered analogue to that water+methanol injection. Just not sure if that would allow for a leaner burn.
