I haven't read that link yet, but what I am trying to get across is that these days forced induction components are MECHANICALLY run. A super charger is belt driven, while a turbo is spooled up by your exhaust. I think some sort of electronically controlled turbocharger (will probably be called something else) is inevitable. The problem is that at the moment manufacturers are trying to perfect old techniques instead of coming up with new ones.

And Blackstx yes variable valve timing is new, but its hardly forced induction!
