it can be done, but you're better off just using your m62 for initial boost, then letting the turbo take over later.
use the money you would spend on tvs on turbo

i plan on going this route too, and after talking with vince about it...we were talking about efficiency and pricing and stuff and he says it's all around better to just stick with m62.

it can be done, but its a complete waste of time and money since the s/c only works to spool the turbo, and then stops working once the turbo is spooled up so you wouldnt really see much improvement beetween the m62 and the tvs due to the limited effects or the supercharger.

correct me if I am wrong but that is why they use the M62 and the stock pulley, it will use less rotational mass than the TVS, which will create higher HP's.

Thanks guys. I was bored at work today and was thinking of ways to make my car faster lol. I think twin charging would be an eventual goal for my car. Once I pay it off I will be going that or a stage kit.
