Hi! Kawasaki Ki-100Ⅱfighter. Ki-100 II. Engine Mitsubishi Ha-112-II Ru with turbocharger, 1,120 kW (1,500 hp). 3 built as such.
Bottom drawing shows Mitsubishi Ha-112-II Ru turbocharging system which installed Kawasaki Ki-102. In this picture, the engine itself is omitted.
Wasn't at least one of these found intact after the Japanese surrender, there are a few photos online purporting to be of the Ki-100-II, e.g. these, which appear to show the correct intake arrangement and I think the Turbocharger piping under the fuselage is visible:

Thanks a lot JFC Fuller-san. These pictures are absolutely what we want to see!!
Ki-100Ⅱ did not have intercooler. She had water/methanol injection system instead.
