As some will know my car has the dynamo with the fittings for power steering - which are as far as I can tell a nut on an extended shaft (plus SFL bearings) that drives the power steering pump.
There's also superchargers available for the B series but very little space to fit them in a landcrab.
I think it should be possible to fit a small supercharger (or the inlet side of a turbo in such a way as it uses the power steering drive to drive the supercharger directly - either by direct drive or a flexi shaft. The longer the plenum from the supercharger to the intake manifold the better (for either suck or blow-through types), since there is a larger reserve of pressurised air or mixture waiting around.
Incidentally - does anyone know how far the choke moves the needle? Mine is not a happy bunny on choke with this kw needle and I'd like to compare the two (tw/kw) at the choke station - but I can't find where it is supposed to be on the jet.
