Ah, im on mobile lol. Dont see the signature unfortunately. It actually sounds like a fun project to tackle and a fun car to drive haha. I would like to do a setup like yours someday, very unique.

​​​​​​​btw you need a go pro to record and drive

A non blow up engine would be nice

​​​​​​​btw are you running boost from both the supercharger and turbo at the same time? Or do you have the sc bypass open up when turbo boost comes in?

The supercharger is spinning fast enough that it isn't a restriction in any way. The bypass port on these supercharges is tiny and would be way more of a restriction than passing through the spinning rotors.

Bypassing the SC would lower the overall airflow. This is a series system, no bypass when in boost.

​​​​​​​I see, thanks for clearing that up guys. I was looking at the old zzp twincharged cobalt they did years ago and they would open the bypass when the turbo was spooling. Now that i think of it, it makes sense that opening the bypass would be more redtrictive than just the rotors spinning alone.

For the turbo wastegate or boost controller, where do you pull the boost reference signal? Before or after the SC?

I have it hooked up to the compressor housing. You can do it either way. One controls total boost and one controls just the turbo boost.
