You could just send if off to Dinan who has a complete kit for that. 
Brett Anderson has worked with some of this stuff and if you're anywhere
near New York he may be able to help you.

One of the folks who makes supercharger kits was looking at mine at
O'Fest '96 and remarked that there was a lot of room for a supercharger
in there so there may exist a kit by now.  If not maybe someone'll want
to use your car to develop a kit since these things are finally dropping
in value and people are starting to realize what great cars they are.
