I was just wondering if anyone has tried (Or even thought of) twin-charging their celica? Its probably not feesable and Im not thinking about doing it myself.....just wondering if it can be done to our cars.
Any thoughts?? This post has been edited by Aus: Sep 28, 2006 - 6:56 PM -------------------- 1996 UK white ST205

i toyed with the idea for a while....but i was going to do a very "ethnic" setup.
twin charging (btw, i had no idea there was a name for it, i was going to call it dual-stage forced induction) would have a few benefits, including more degrees of tuneability, pro/con offsets (turbo lag offset by consistent boost from sc, power-leech from sc offset by turbo, etc).... but it would be six hells of expensive and a logistical nightmare. piping, intercooling, charger locations, multiple redundant gauges....yadda yadda. it would be cool in a maybach kind of way, i.e. only because at the end of the day, it's completely ludicrous.
