What do you think of using a turbo
charger to augment airflow through heat exchangers for engine cooling rather
than boosting the fuel air charge? This would serve the dual purpose of
quieting the loud rotary exhaust and perhaps easing the problem of providing
adequate cooling inside the confines of the RV cowl.

I think it would work. Kind of expensive in terms of weight and cost.
We have talked a lot about cooling here but it is not very hard
to do if you plan your airplane for water cooling right from the
get go.
