seems ridiculous.

If they are worried about the turbo lag....whynot just inject a little giggle juice to get the turbos spooled up quickly.....then turn off the nitrous.

I'm with you- It seems like an over-engineered solution to a problem that could have been accomplished much more easily w/ a little juice.

On the other hand, kudos for the execution.

I can just see hear that conversation... "Is it supercharged or TT'ed?", reply, "It's both"

Stage 1, Supercharger, Stage 2 TT, Stage 3 100 shot of happy gas? It would feel like a frickin' rocket.

It' not like it's the first time someone tried this before. In the Sport Compact Car top ten cars issue, they had an MR2 with turbo and supercharger too. As well as a Tiburon with two engines and 1000 horsepower.
