The reason I asked is that the turbos are not allowed on the vintage automotive engines. Only roots type blowers. Just making sure.

"a supercharger is required and shall be mechanically or exhaust gas driven"   According to the rule book you are OK to run a turbo.
Get off the stove Grandad.  You're too old to be riding the range.
