Wow... youve done all that to an 18R-C?
Sounds like a bit of a waste for that engine.

Its the head that determines if the engine can run ULP. AFAIK the 18R-C can run ULP, the 18R cant.
If you want to be safe, just use some upper cyl lube like flashlube in your petrol. Only adds about 2c/l to the price of your petrol (1L is $16 which does 1000L of petrol).

As for the supercharger, you wont be able to run much boost with stock compression, maybe 4-8 psi. Running good fuel ULP98 will help with that though.
If your serious about the supercharger, you should look at using low-comp pistons or using a thick copper head gasket.
