Orin Riddell turbo normalized an IO-360 in his plane around 1998.  From my recollection, he had some cooling issues and the heat from the turbo blistered his cowl paint due to tight clearances.  This was done like a prototype, but Lancair never offered it as an option.  Too much work and too expensive.  Orin eventually sold the plane to start working on a IV-P.  Don't know who owns it now.
