Electric superchager?
I am going to put a 400 cfm bilge inline blower on air box intake tube with a blow off flap set to 3lbs. A contact switch mounted on throtle cable will turn blower on at 3/4 or more pedal. The car is a 73 914, 2.0, 7.6 to 1 comp., norris 352S cam,a single 32 NDIX Zenith on center mount, 009, 30 BTDC. Stock exhaust with monza mufflers.

Good luck.
Electric "supercharging" is extremely inefficient, just like electric heat in a car is inefficient compared to the car's natural "mechanical" heat. I seriously doubt that you will even exceed 1 or 2 PSI, but let us all know in any case.
Ooops! You said "3/4 throttle"? In that case, I would be surprised if you create any boost whatsoever.
