there are no s/c kits available right now so that may narrow it down a bit

When I was 16, I tried using my Dad's leaf blower as a SC by pulling out the filter and sticking it in the intake tube. Didn't work for me, but you might have better luck, if you really want that SC!

why not start doing a little research and maybe make your own? I find that your own turbo charg kit will save you money in the end and is fun too.
