I was thinking such a DIY centrifugal jet might work for an "APU boost" type setup...
Wish I could find it. There was a guy who built a hillclimb car (maybe Escort?) with a jet engine mounted sidesaddle, and a DOHC Ford engine (forget if BDA or YBB) that was force-inducted by a bleed from the jet's compressor. Think externally driven turbocharger. Boost, needless to say, was instant and excessive, since it was completely decoupled from the engine.
