That is fantastic, but you do realize that in order to make this a proper functioning sistem (twin charged), you should have a roots blower, not a centrifugal blower (only type available at the moment). The roots blower being a positive displacement pump, it will build boost at 1500rpm, and by the time it runs out of efficiency a turbo (much larger than what STS offers) should kick in for the top end. IMO this is pointless though, as these engines don't make power in the low RPM's anyway.

A proper twin-charge system takes a lot of designing, including the complicated intake piping, unless you are just planning to run turbo coldside outlet to SC inlet, but that seems like a bad idea. Anyway, what stage of the planning process are you in and had any shop committed to designing the setup for you? It's not as simple as just throwing a SC on a turbo car, unfortunately.

A 900hp turbo does not mean anything. |

If you have to use the term "slap" and "supercharger" in the same sentence, then you probably shouldn't be doing this. *IF* you have a stroked motor, then why are you needing to compound boost it? You have new found torque from stroking it, and if you have a so called 900hp turbo, your probably spinning tires all the way to 6th gear.

Here we go again, with the "NEW" guy on here jumping in the deep end, Anyone know his car . Agreed with what has been said 4.5+ Turbo = happy for every NO? Why the heck are you adding a SC? $$$$ to burn I could use some.

Better yet, why would anyone who could afford building a 4.5L stroker go with the STS kit?
