Did you remove the link, or is the forum censoring something in the link ?

edit: nvm found it, i guess the forum filters out that site?

Is it the gazoo?

It does seem like an expensive endeavour... For less hp then some of the turbo-only builds we've seen on these forums

I've read about this before, combining a SC and TC to gain benefits from both. Seems overly complex, and that's the opposite reason I want this car. Not for me, but interesting, nonetheless.

Yea its the GR twincharged car. I don't remember if it was here, or not- but i remember seeing this thing a while back before my fr-s came in.

This forum breaks some links, so to share your links if the forum broke them, go to a shortening service (http://goo.gl/ for example) and shorten the address and all will be good :thumbup:

Here's a video of a Lotus that employs combo-charging.

The advantages of using combo-charging is the immediate power from the super charger, then the bigger power later with the turbo.
