Twin Charging

I'm sure you guys have seen the video of the twin charged Silvia on youtube, just wondering how hard you think that would be

It's probably a pain in the ***, not to mention expensive.

2k to redline? I would guess it's more like 700 rpm to redline. There is no lag with a supercharger. But hey, it's all pipe dreams after all.

true, true
Hypothetically speaking what do you think would be the best turbo for that set up (super into turbo) I figured GT3071R but what the hell do I know.

the bigger the turbo the harder the tuning will be, thats the key issue with twin charging, i have a close friend with a twin charged chevy cobalt ss and the hardest thing to do is find someone and some system that can tune a car that is twin charged. As far as getting everything on the car thats not hard at all, but getting everything to work properly and in the right rpm and powerband is a pain in the ***. If your going to do it, see what shops neer you are well known for tuning, go to them tell them what you want to do and find out what they would suggest as far as management and find out if they could even do the tuning.

teach the FF a lesson
It's kind of a long term dream for me, but I want to put a SR in a 240z.
First I was thinkin GT28rs but I don't like the fact that it trickles off before the redline and the gt2871r is good, but still not that much power until about 3.5k.
Twin charging would really be the ultimate. 400-450 hp in a car that weighs 2100-2200 lbs.tasty
