Twincharged coupe?

Hey all, just prowlin threads and a question came to my mind. If I wanted to boost an 06 g35 coupe with a twin turbo kit, AND put a Stillen Supercharger on it, would that be possible? Of course lots of other changes would have to be made to make up for that much torque but Im just thinking about whether this would be possible, thanks for any feedback!

Why would anyone want to do that?

Just go for TT's and you will be more than happy.

There is no use to twin charging. Most of the twin turbo kits out have almost no lag and more than enough for 500whp which is just nuts.

Anything is possible with enough money but IMO it will require way to muc custom work to out weight the benefits of a fully built motor with tt

Granted the OP's question is pretty odd, but why answer a question with a question?

To the OP: off the top of my head, I don' think it'll work. These things don't just "add together" to give you magic horsepower and torque. I'm pretty sure that a positive displacement supercharger works by squeezing ambient pressure air and would probably become ineffective/inefficient as you try to feed it pressurized air (from the turbos). I've seen dual roots blowers on separate heads of a V engine before, but that's not what you were looking for.

I didn't asnwer a question with a question, if you read the rest of my short post

I would advise the OP just to go TT on a built block. Doing such a project would take alot of time and money, for about the same results as a TT on a built block.

It will cost a lot of money.. But honestly, that would be the sickest thing I've seen done to a G35

Twincharging will effectively give you much more low end power until the turbo's spool.

As a side benefit, they'll spool faster due to increased exhaust volume/velocity.

Anyone familiar with that twincharged STi from a while back?

This doesn't answer the question, and may not be a great idea for a V engine. But my roomate with the tt supra said sound performance is supposed to be coming out with a sequential design that allows for instant spool on a huge turbo. Supra's have a straight 6, but has anyone thought of doing this for each bank on a v6? bi-sequential turbo system? haha, that would be sick, Idk where you'd fit it all though. I guess this would really be for someone that wants 1000+ hp though.

There's actually a euro-only Volkswagen (something compact like a lupo) with a positive displacement supercharger feeding a 1.4L I-4 which is also turbo'ed, all from the factory. It was done for efficiency, not performance, but the same principles apply. It is possible, just difficult.
