Lowering overall RPM per gear per mph is the goal. I understand the car would be a bit 'slower' but a supercharger would help with that

Thank you!
Yes it's been done. We installed a 3.15 in Robert's stroked, supercharged E92 Texas Mile car. We both found it very drivable with the 3.15 when the supercharger was installed. Not so much when we put the stock engine back in. Today the differential is back to stock 3.85 with a stock motor.
Do you mean pencil geek's car?

If so, what happened to it?
