You get the roots whine, the centrifugal whistle and 700+rwhp in a Maloo (modern El Camino except in Aussyland).

I believe it is based on the G8 platform. I swear Australia gets all the cool cars from GM and Ford:

Probably not.

For one its got to create all kinda of heat. Plus the airflow of the two s/c's would have to be matched pretty well it seems.

i think it would work but the intake maniolf intercooler wouldnt be enough to cool the intake charge, if the centri was cooled before it entered the maggie it would work quite well i think .

Cool concept and way to pull it off but I'd think a twin charged system would be easier with a turbo + SC not SC + SC. In any case that's awesome!!
I'd love to see the braket running the twin belts and wonder what would happen if one of the belts slipped...oooooooooo
I'd like to see some more specs on it!
