    S/C and Turbo?

    Anyone see the article in the new MM&FF mag on the 03 Terminator with a turbo feeding into the blower? Is this a grenade waiting to happen or is it a new option? It did put down crazy, probably undrivable power.

    They had a stock pulley on this one with twin 66mm turbos. 27 psi on the turbos and 44 lbs in the mainfold on a more or less stock motor.

    they were making some crazy numbers in the article. sounds like its working to me. i love the idea. i would do turbos that way. then i can keep it supercharger. something about compound power adders just sounds sexy.

    I have become very suspect of MM&FF numbers. I read an article about a chick in a Roush GT running low 10's I think with 430rwhp... To say I nearly jumped off the toilet to call BS was an understatement.
    2012 Race Red GT w/ a 5 Liter and a 6 speed
    2010 Dodge Challenger R/T traded in.
    '03 DBS Cobra .... Traded in, THANK GOD
    '01 Ford Lightning.... Sold, sorely missed

    Tractor pull guys have been doing this for years. Usually 3 turbo's ar used where the first 2 will feed the inlet of the third.

    Why BS??? That is realistic with the correct suspension setup. My buddy's 93 GT makes 367 RWHP and has run a best of 10.604 @ 125.22.
