Default Just for fun ultimate forced induction convo (BS'ing encouraged)

Alright I got bored of waiting for updates on a certain persons car so i figure why not start a laid back thread to throw out all that bs rolling around in some gear savvy heads about forced induction. anything you can think of is fair game, rear mounted turbo in the hatch? sure, series turbocharging on bullit's car to push over 50lbs? great, using a wastegate on the charge pipe of a supercharged setup as a boost controller? why the hell not.

One thing i thought of recently would be a peltier junction enhanced liqued to air inter cooler setup. for those that don't know a peltier junction is a a chip that when provided with an electric current shifts heat from one side to the other. so put it this way you have the air flowing through a water to air intercooler, the water flows over one or more peltier chips, the chips can drive the temperature of the cold side down 40-60 degrees(celsius) compared to the hot side, so a second cooling system is hooked up to the hot side to drive it down in temp. with properly sized coolers this would let you drive intercooler fluid temps down up to 40 degrees celsius, of course these babys suck electricity like mad. but think about just flipping them on for a bit to completly mitigate heatsoak. for that matter why not mount one to the bottom of the coolant reservoir
