Wow someone got a little offended...
Twin Charging is not going to yield you the most power..
The supercharger does NOTHING on the lsj past the spool point of the turbo... it just doesnt..
you know where all the power comes from? The Turbo...

Absolutely correct sir. i do know that, i am a zzp employee. I didn't mean to get pissy i just hate when people just look for things to be a ass about. ANYWAYS Yes definitally a straight turbo will make the most power with the correct turbo and supporting mods. But Our twincharge kit's main idea is the zero lag with great numbers
can some1 plz post up some specs on the TVS. Like price, and HP. Looked on the sight and didnt see what HP gains are posted. I thought I read somewhere its liek 50HP. which brings a SS/SC up to 250hp. Which to me isnt all that much for an extra 2grand. Hope im wrong.
Some1 post up HP numbers for TVS and then what can be done to it like smaller pulley etc. and what HP you BELIEVE will be gained with these mods. just outta curiosity.
And I am kinda see'ing how twincharging can cause problems because it does seem like the supercharger only works in the beginning and then once the turbo spools it obviously is no longer a benifit but works against you because it is putting strain on your engine. This would make sense and a just straight turbo would probobly be better. or twin turbo with a smaller turbo and a larger turbo. But none the less twincharging is cool as ****.

Honestly, it was the worst day i've had in a long time. My car almost got towed and my bank has to "hold my check" for 5 business days for some reason....which sucks b/c i'm already in the hole and I have to pay rent and car insurance tommorrow. I'm going to the bank when they open to clear some stuff up though. My ex-employer lost my check and had to re-send it, which is why i'm in the hole. But thats not my fault. So i'm gonna see if they can wave some of the overdrafts that resulted from my former employer/postal service's fail, b/c that money would have been in there MUCH sooner and I wouldn't have overdrawn had I gotten it when I was entitled to it.

You know your right Mr. J.B.A., 400 horse isn't that much Considering my stepfather and i built and own a 1800 horse procharged small block alcohol sand dragster i know what real horse power is. I was simply stating that the TWINCHARGED kit is definitally impressive and makes good power. Dick.
i was simply going off what you had typed. this is the internet after all.
if you would like to compare ***** size in terms of cars. we can do that all day long, but we will end up in the same situation as we started. so the point is null and void
::shrugs::
carry on kids
p.s. im in no way shape or form mad, upset, pissy, or trying to start a fight.
that would be a turbo lsj car in michigan. to my knowledge at least
