[W126 Coupe] Turbo/supercharger

Hello Alec,

Out US engines are 9-1, thus no need to drop compression. Yes, I will
run an intercooler, both physical and chemical. Too not do so makes no
sense.

My manifolds for the TT project are cast...the other headers are for
naturally aspired cars, ideally to be run w/ the cams I'm offering.
