I have a decent amount of knowledge in turbocharging b-series engines, and I know my way around a wrench . Im wondering if there is any way to take a b18c, and turbo AND supercharge. Yes it would be expensive, blah blah... I also realize there would need to be an insane amount of tuning to have the car run right, but has it been done? I have had some very different responses to this question, but i'm bringing it here for discussion.

FLAME AWAY

 

There are two people on HT that have already done it, it's a lot of work, but rediculous throttle response, and great mid-range power. Search and you will find............

I tried searching but i guess the technically correct term is dual sequential chargers...Thanks for the fast feedback guys - I knew it could be done

 

HKS (if I recall correctly) twincharged a stock internal gsr back in the day and made mid 400's at the wheels with a serious torque curve. It was in a magazine a LONG time ago. Can't remember which...probably super street back before the magazine went downhill.

20 pounds on a stock type r with 11.1 compression

 

I dont think its worth it on a small engine, but i guess those are the only engines that are going to need it.The bigger sized motors will tend to have less lag with bigger turbos.

Overkill, but sweet idea none the less, especially when it works.

i wouldnt even say that. the engine bay looks like a sumo wrestler inside a telephone booth. the only thing i like on the car is the rear body kit with the centered exhaust
