That is nutz. I wonder how much of it its really putting down. I would think with all the boost, it would crink that drier hose.

I was wondering if it is even worth it to run two blowers like that. a buddy was telling me about some toyota tacoma running a S/C and a turbo at the same time. But i dont think it would be that benifical.

i don't know in that application if it would be beneficial but i know semi trucks used to run a blower with a turbo on top of it. the supercharger was for more down low and the turbo was for top end.

Your talking about 2-cycle Detroit Diesel and they would not run with out the blower. It was used as a scavenging pump.

I've thought about doing a twin blower set up on my 8.1 but I think twin turbos would be better.
