How much would I be looking at to stick either a turbo or a supercharger on
my 2.0 JTS 156. See if I can boost those horses from 165 to over 200.
Warranty is up at the end of the month, so the car is 'free'.! How about
insurance difference - anyone any experience of that?

Would be cheaper and better to sell yours and buy a V6, IMHO.

Novitec do something along those lines, but I limited myself just to buying
their pedals!

Turbo for a 2lr is a little more expensive that a Supercharger
