Toss ‘em up!
Me: a variable speed electric drive fof a centrifugal blower. Centrifugals are the most efficient blower with least intake charge heating. The catch they’re inefficient at idle speeds, they have to rev a bit to make boost.
Have an electric motor drive the blower at speeds corresponding to throttle and gear selection.
The motor would not need to be too large and you could power it indirectly with a lipo battery. In between runs the alternator recharges the battery.
I bet that would equate to less weight and complexity than a similar multi-speed transmission drive for the blower.
