Thanks for the info on the dyno, Karl.
Here is another update.
Engine Bay Prep
First thing was to remove the supercharger. Also removed the electromotive wasted spark system as well as the DWUR, then came removal of the CIS.
The removal of the CIS was straightforward as I have done it many times. I forgot about the bracket behind the throttle body but quickly figured it out when it wouldn't budge.
I am using another set of intake pipes and I set up the passenger side to see if it interfered with the fuel rail, which it did. I purchased the injectors with the adapters to have the 60mm length but now have the option of removing the adapters and dropping to 48 mm length. So I did that, cut the fuel rail brackets to lower the rails and put a one inch spacer to raise the compressor adapter. The spacers were identified as a flat washer on the website but look like spacers.

After raising the compressor mount adapter and cutting a chunk off of the mount I was able to position the mount so that I could still tighten the serpentine belt by moving the compressor left/right but it wouldn't interfere with the compressor. The next question is whether or not the raised compressor interferes with the decklid. I can't answer yet due to a snafu with my decklid which caused me to remove it for now.

In any event, if I have to cut the decklid, the cut falls within the space covered by the tail. I did have hopes at some point to be able to go tailless for a season but that may not be possible now.

With the compressor test done I was able to remove the compressor mount and remove the shroud, since I wanted to give it a thorough cleaning. I made one mistake in my first rebuild years ago: I mounted the breather cover gasket backwards. It was a pretty minor thing, but it allowed the engine to puke oil through there and the mess is history.
Dirty engine!
While I was at it, the engine bay wires were kind of crunchy and not in the best of shape. Also, there are all of these extra wires for the CIS auxiliary devices wirings cluttering things up. A quick call to Dennis (timmy2) and I ordered a new engine bay wiring harness sans CIS. Dennis quickly turned it around so I pulled the old wiring and am ready for the new, but first, to clean the top of the engine where the aforementioned oil was nicely spread by the fan.
Now I remember why I am so much slower than a mechanic. I can't just fix something, I have to make sure everything is as clean as I can get it. This makes every project take 2 to 3 times longer! Of course, I need to fix a few scratches on the shroud, add some paint to the compressor mount, etc. etc.
Clean bay ready for knock sensor bridge install.
The faithful wasted spark electromotive removed as I am going COP. The messy wires are relays and fuses for the AC condenser fans which were recently installed (the whole AC worthy of its own thread). These will be properly tidied up as a side job now that there is good access.
Here is the new engine bay wiring harness from timmy2 for everything not related to the EFI system.
Next is the installation of the cam sensor...
