wouldn’t that make your car like an all around menace? always on fast at the start so you have the dig covered then your boosting into top gear when the spool kicks in im sure there is like a totally HUIGE! disadvantage to this but the theory sounds nice i gues ---

Twin Charging is what I have always heard it called. No real disadvantage other than price. ---

then in theory there would be no lag correct? As the supercharger runs it’s course gives the turbine plenty of time for spool so that way its already to go and there is no lag right when 1 is done the other kicks in so your always covered? ---

Just running a supercharger into a turbo or vice versa is terribly inefficient. ---

That twincharged e36 has been around for a long time. I remember reading about the project on dtmpower back in like 2001 or something. But yeah the Group B Lancia Delta S4 was a pretty cool early example of twincharging… [http://www.groupbrally.com/lancia.shtml](http://www.groupbrally.com/lancia.shtml) ---

A guy did this with his Grand Prix GTP as well. He ran 10s. Came to the conclusion that he could make the same power without the extra heat/restriction…and ditched the supercharger. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/turbo-supercharger/35303.md?page=2)
