Can you Turbo AND Supercharge a car at the same time?

Question:


Answers:

Does anybody know of a website that sells used rims for cheap??

Yes, it can be done. It's usually done in high Hp applications where a large turbo with lots of turbo lag is used. The supercharger is then used to provide low end torque and help spin up the turbo.

Where can i go to learn to drive a manual 5 speed transmission?

I can't say I remember that being done. If you wanted more air, then you could change the pully and spin the supercharger up a little faster.

How can I lift a Toyota Tundra the cheapest way?

I guess you could with enough plumbing and hardware, but you can only run SO much boost pressure, and either one will produce enough boost, so it would be pointless to do it.

unlike what dodgeman said it can be done and has been done on big diesels for years,your only issue with a car engine is space and dollars,you would need some pretty serious upgrading of the drive train or it may self destruct
good luck

Why are El Centro, CA gas prices so high?

You could but why spend that kind of dough? Check out some big-rig diesels -- many Detroit Diesels have a turbo mounted atop the supercharger.

What do you think of this car?

Yes it is possible, just not practical. There really is no reason to do both. As stated it has been done on diesels for years. It takes roughly 50 hp to spin a blower at wide open throttle on a GM 6-71 diesel (2100rpm). I believe it was Johnson and Towers that made the first blower bypass system. At a pre determined rpm the blower would be disengaged from the system and the turbo would be feeding air to the engine. This gave an immediate 50 hp gain by removing the parasitic loses of the blower.

How much is gas? Name your city and Country and the US dollar amount for Regular unleaded. Gallon or Liter.?

The new volkswagen golf GT has a turbocharger and supercharger... 170 bhp and 170 lb ft from a 1.4L. Thats the advantage. However, a better option would be twin turbos, there is virtually no turbo lag and you get a smooth power delivery. Many cars use this, Skylines, 911s, Lotus Carltons etc.
