Is it possible to add a turbo to an SSEi?
I don't nearly have enough money but it would be good to know.
Specifically I was looking at this one :

Yes.
Block off plate for the supercharger is usually the route as pictured here.

Basically your */C is gutted and used as a UIM.
I do beleive some people have done both the */C AND turbo where the */C provided boost until the turbo was spooled up, but I don't think this configuration is done too often.

you get the SC to so many RPMS then the turbo at higher RPMS. do a serach for
twin charging or twin charged. t
its been done. this is an interesting car, sunfire with this setup, not a 3.8L but might be a good read. there are differing opinions on the set up.

Holy ****
So it goes from the turbo to the supercharger?
I'm guessing this has never been done on a Bonneville then.
How much do you think that would all cost haha?

I can safely bet a setup like this, with tuning costs, will cost way more than the Bonneville is worth...
