According to STS it can, but who knows. That is why I asked.

Its been done before, i cant seem to find any of my links. There wasdecent write up on just the parts and labor but either the site was removed or dead link. The guy started off with a kbell super, then decided to try a sts-like setup and ended up putting twice as much money into it as planned. After all of the mods (engine/comp/trans) he came just about equal with if not above the kb. He didnt like the lag and maintenance comparison and ended up parting it out and going to ati cent.super and with a couple more changes netted 35+ more hp over the remote turbo. It was a good write up and not just some backyard mech, if i can find it i'll be sure to post.

I have seen pictures of 2 or 3 of them....a Buddy from Germany is looking into a S/C to go on his.
But he has a 07, I would be concerned about tuning.

That was the major thing concern for me was tuning. I am sure you could try an AFC, but I wouldn't know were to begin. I had a buddy that had a s/c but roasted his trans. As an added note. A s/c or turbo engine is often (99 times out of 100) more effiecient than naturally aspirated.
