Look, people… I’m sorry. I really am. please don’t flame my thread, I know it’s a dumb question…

what I was wondering is, is it possible to both Turbocharge a car AND Supercharge it?..

again,… I’M SORRY FOR ASKING SUCH A NOOB QUESTION.

The proof of a production car with this… and i heard someone did it to a couple of RB26 Blocks… but i’m guessing its just some “780 Rumour”…

I used ot have that pic^^^

Lots of people twun charge the GZE 4A. I think its a waist of time. Its just a way to have something different. Slap a good turbo on it and you wont need a supercharger.

Wasn’t Nguyen running a supercharger as well on his S14, I remember something about that last fall but I wasn’t sure. I remeber something about it being unhooked at the V8less thing last year.

A well planned turbo will yeild better results than a combination, ever wonder why the super turbo fad died? Because engineers made a couple of good advancements in turbochargers…

And to do this will cost double of turbo kit… for starters…

Just think about this, you’d need a supercharger (Roots style probably wouldnt work, so you’d have to go centrifugal… which is the intake side of a turbo… why bother…) and THEN add in a turbo, make them flow into the same intercooler (which would probably make a maze of IC pipes that even the most hard core welder would break down and cry at the sight of) and then comes the fun part… FUEL MANAGEMENT!

And to make matters even more fun, what do you plan to put this in? If you say Spec V, i respond with… Is there enough space? …

Is it practical? No, good luck finding a leak or issue in your now overcrowded engine bay…

Suffice to say, save up and buy a Turbo Kit, easier, more fun and less headache…

(Sorry if i sound like an ass … i didnt mean to sound like it… but yeah just my opinion anyway…)
