from what i have read on this set up. the supercharger gives you the low end power you want off the line and then when the turbos get going they cause the supercharger to somehow stop or open up or something to that effect. then the turbos give you the power up top. so its supposed to be like the perfect set up. i dont know if all of this is true i have just heard from other ppl.Originally Posted by wickd03

Cool idea but seems like such overkill...

I've heard about this car, and what I understand is it's more of a "cool" thing than a practical or even necessary thing to do.
It is different that is for sure. Tuning it has to be fun.Black 04 Cobra

Real simple question that will tell the tale on this system:
What system is far more efficient?
A twin turbo system that on a stock Cobra longblock produces 976RWHP/880RWWQ AT 26 psi.
A twin turbo compounded boost w/eaton on a stock Cobra longblock making 1,188 rwhp and 1,015 rwtq at 44psi?............with CLAIMED inlet temps of 120

plus you have twice as many things to go wrong. plus more money in the start up of the build. They make a trans brake to leave out of the whole. Or something called methanol, or a lil juice for that matter. And if you cant get your car too spool that well you have a badly built kit. I have no problems making my 82mm spool down low. Granted it doesn't start building boost @ 1000 rpms like a supercharger. But it does plenty for whats at hand. Originally Posted by WildBill
