well, the better answer is that supercharging doesn't work with 2 strokes, both the intake and exhaust ports are open at the same time, supercharging, or forced air induction wouldn't work, it'd just blow all the air in and out, no power gains, if only i had a quarter for everytime someone asked this...

NO They don't work with 2 stroke engines. They are a waste of money. siriosis is exactly right.

Just to add something, supercharging (or turbocharging for that matter) is possible on 2-stroke engine in general, but it depends on the design. See here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-str...e_design_types

The piston controlled inlet port design looks like what the typical nitro engine uses. Not very efficient, but cheap and easy to make.

I've never heard of a supercharger but I believe theres NOS available. Either way unless its all for show its just a big waste. It will be way to powerful.
