Sir, I christen you with the new name of hyper-tom.

stupocharger?
disturbocharger?
superdupercharger?

There must be a name for this! I vote superdupercharger. Especially if you add
a supercharger downstream in the exhaust to recapture the lost exhaust energy and return it to the drivetrain mechanically.

I personally prefer Turbo charging, heat is not an issue if the inter cooling is set up to be efficient
Your snarkometer may need recalibration.
