Im thinking of twincharging (supercharged and turbocharged) an h22. (sleeved and built) of course. Has it been done on a 4th or 5th gen lude? If so any info would be greatly appreciated.

he talking about twin charging an H22. you would run into serious space issues before you would even consider getting it running reliably with your (minimum) standalone management,
especially on the pulley side of the engine bay, not to mention the series or huge intercooler you'd have to run
you would have less trouble throwing a turbo V6 in a prelude.

Ummm space issues? what are you guys talking about? Lets say he owns a 4th gen, people can still get the jackson racing superchargers into the engine bay with a little work. the pulley area can be cleared up simply by removing the egr, the cruise control, and still allow him to keep the PS.
Now, why would a turbo affect the space in the back? the turbo components are nowhere near the back of the engine bay. He could then get his turbo charger and manifold and install his turbo setup. He would need a nice big intercooler etc. If he is running into any heating issues its as simple as doing two things. Spray on the intercooler, and an oil cooler. Both fairly cheap and extremely effective.
Why would you ever do such a thing? If i could i would as well. No turbo lag. You have your super charger covering your *** in the low rpms until the turbo lag has kicked out and you have reached full boost. The car would be a rocket.
As for tuning, get a hondata and look at it this way. Are you the one tuning it? No, the tuner gets to have the fun tuning the car. Just make sure you go to a shop that can handle the application and you will be good to go.

Before I go into why this can be a kick *** setup if..... used for the right purpose. and how I think it can be executed correctly. What would you be using this for ie 1/4 mile, auto x, or you just want to have it so u say u have it?

i though about doing this too use the supercharger to spool up the turbo but i agree nitrous and turbo would be better but yes it can be done just think the size injectors you would need lol 1500 cc lol
Actually there are several H22 setups already running 1600cc injectors. Remember the prologger 6 cyl dragster a procharger and compound turbo's? it had 16 injectors. With enough money and time anything is possible, but as asked earlier why - with the turbo's available today the H22 can produce over 1,000 whp, but then there is that nagging problem of putting it to the ground with 25" slicks. Have you ever seen a supercharged prelude - everything is soooo close with space that is available -

I've always thought about this, and it would be a very interesting ride.. I'd love to take something like that for a spin.

Haven't seen it on a prelude, but here's a setup on a B16:

The guy ended up with a loss of 20 hp up top, but gained 50 hp down low. This type of setup would be great for road racing, but not so good for drag racing.

Twin turbo a 4 banger... IMO isn't the best idea. You will basically have 2 cylinders for each turbo vs say a v6 3 per turbo. They are producing enough exhaust to spool those turbos up pretty good. I think it can be done but will it be very effective? I don't know. Maybe a small and a large one
. Try it out and let us know

Twin-charged, not twin-turboed. Read it again

since there is essentially no "mild" twin charged setup that is really worth it;
so, in a 92-96, after banging your shock tower, and removing components;
the heat that would be produced, not only from a stressed h22, a decent sized turbo and the recompression of the intake charge, but also the exertion of small roots blower would require better cooling; eg larger radiator, bigger oil cooler,in addition to the water to air or basic huge front mount intercooler. plus the necessity of adding in the a bypass for the eaton, all surrounded by oil & water lines & 3"+ piping; not impossible; but quite difficult

^ how the hell is that difficult? An oil cooler, an intercooler, 3 inch piping? Is that hard to install? last time i checked it was an adapter plate and a few bolts. You forgot to mention spray for the cooling issues.
