E-motor "supercharger" also with manual transmission?

I admire your motivation and ingenuity! I'd been considering doing this kind of thing with a European manual car from the 1970s, i.e. where the technology is very basic, and there's loads of room in the engine compartment! I really like the idea of the e-motor driving the crank pulley via a belt, thereby taking load off the engine directly. I am assuming that your Subaru has automatic transmission. I suspect that that might work better than manual in this situation, but correct me if I'm wrong. I'm basically hoping that manual tramission will be no hindrance to doing a project like this. I'm sorry I don't have advice for YOU, but I don't have a hairswidth of the experience that you do in this area :-/ Thank you!
