Turbo&Supercharger install - HondaClub.com

Project04CIVIC · 07-20-2007, 12:29 PM

I don't know if this is possible or not, but I figured I'd ask anyway whether its stupid or not. now if its possible, before I put in the K series, I will be putting money to the side to make it happen to its full potential.
Now then, do to the fact a turbo gains power through the exhaust system and a supercharger runs its power off the pulley system and becomes the new intake manifold, is it possible to install both, at the same time on a single motor? Because you could just run lines from both kits to either a single intercooler if needed or two side mount intercoolers. If anyone has any information on this, please let me know, whether you think this was a dumb question or not.

a super charger is the same as a turbo just powered in different ways and it would be pointless to install both

I'm not sure if this has ever been attempted on a k series engine
