Interesting consideration, Caleb.

    Certainly, the lower exhaust mass flow would have no effect on a
supercharger, however, as we know a supercharger draws all its energy
requirement from the engine useful HP.  Therefore, the question as I see it
is would the supercharger provide sufficiently more power with the remaining
one rotor to 1.  Cover the supercharger HP needs and 2. Provide adequate
boost to get more HP out of the one rotor.  Don't know, good question.
