No, the idea is not completely stupid... Also on a slightly different note, have you ever studied the principle of the GM diesel engine? The 4/71, 6/71, etc. etc. - where the traditional blowers came from.
I actually wanted one of the blowers off of the Mazda engine to put on a 4AGZE, but couldn't find one at a reasonable price. Pity, because they're a nice little lysholm unit too.
If set up carefully with sequential injection, it could be made to work quite well, although for maximum benefit direct injection and then using the supercharger to scavenge the cylinder (like a 2 stroke) would be even better.
Also I'd imagine that such an idea would work best with a variable valve system to vary volumetric efficiency, rather than a throttle - I reckon it'd have advantages for light load thermal efficiency.
Take some time to get the cam timing worked out properly though, but I'd love to hear more about it. Talk to me on MSN sometime, they say great minds work well together
