If you do it man ill give you MAD crazy props....seems some people around here are somewhat against new ideas...BTW id suggest gettin a 4T60E bulletproof tranny from domesticperformance.com if you really plan on doing it.....but its like $3400....also BTW I know of a guy that will sell you a complete engine/tranny SER2 L67 for $1000 with the 4T65E (better) tranny....but then youd just have another supercharged Bonne........also BTW by the end of this winter I may very well have the only Supercharged/Intercooled SER1 L67 powered Bonne (or any car for that matter)

like i have said on many occasions, TT Supra'*(etc.) are the cars that make 700hp and run 12'* while single turbo supras make 650hp and run low 10'*. Heck, a friend of mine has a 10th anniversary supra that ran 11.83 on stock twins with EXCELLENT tuning. He then went the single turbo route (T8 and ran a 10.46 @ 130 on a very poorly tuned setup. What do I know though?

btw, has anyone read of or seen anyone using two different sized turbos as I mentioned above? I'm very curious to find similar examples...
Thanks

Horsepower is good, and its quite possible to massively crank up the HP with a turbo (look at the 3800 horsepower record of almost 700hp done with a turbo) however getting thta to the wheels is a completely different story. Not only do you have the problem of FWD, but you also have that very nice tranny to deal with (or the parts of it anyway, all over the road from even probably 300 horsepower).

My, it is old. Anyway. it'* already up...
Mate a 4T80 to it. Drivetrain problems solved
yeah yeah so one turbo can be as efficient or better than twin turbos. Who gives a flip? Twins are twins
