I didn't read the and at first dang. I have heard of it before on older MR2s. they call it twinchargins, I dunno if you would twincharge a KA, that'd be interesting to see....

That sounds like a ricer tale. Not saying it hasn't been done before, but everytime I get drunk and mention "twinchargins" i get the most horrible looks. I have a friend who just bought a 92 MR2 Turbo. I'm going to have to tell him about this. Where did you hear about that from Sien?

a lanica delta rally car in the 70s used both. the sc was for low end and to spool up the turbo . it was clutched so that it stoped as the turbo was ingaging. it was very powerful and worked well
