Roots blower won't do it, the efficiency is too poor. I had this idea before (two Roots blowers, bypass one of them and shut off the air supply to turn the second one into a turbine, open the bypass to provide supercharging).

Given that this happens at very low load, you need a really tiny turbine to provide sufficient restriction.

It's far easier to just avoid the power loss by increasing EGR.
