Then the engine will die from the back pressure.

How about getting the compressed air from the exhaust port? No, it's
not really compressed, but the volume flowing into a tank should
result in some compression --- the exhaust stroke is an "up stroke"
after all.
If you're going to un-balance it, run three cylinders and pump from one.

My MGA would lose spark to cylinders in humid weather (never did
figure out how they drove them in England) - it was rough on three
cylinders, and would just barely run on two. The Olds 215 V8 made it a
much more reliable car!

Can't seal off the intake....Your compressor has to get air somewhere.

No real need to seal off the exhaust either if you just scavenge air
pressure from the combustion stroke with a check valve in the injector
holes.
