Supercharger

Would a supercharger from a c230 kompressor fit into a c240?

No.
If you want to supercharge a 240 you have to go AM, the intake plumbing of the two models are too different, not to mention mounting, belt routing etc

Custom turbos are a lot easier to install (after which can be a nightmare...) but grab any old T3, some copper tubing if not self oiled, some steam pipe and even radiator hose for an intake and BOOM...8psi in a weekend. Of the few custom Super Charger projects I have been involved with...not worth it...

you've done this before? How much does the total cost come to?

A C32 swap is more "realistic" (check Wavykat's thread - very impressive), though both projects would be cheaper if you just sold your 240 and bought the car that you really wanted instead.
