There are no kits available. It has to be all custom fabricated and setup. Its not a popular or simple setup either. Parts are expensive and the system takes up alot of room.

At a guess if a workshop was to do it all, I would estimate 20-25K would pull up alot of the parts and labour including fabrication and machine work. But that wouldnt be including alot of the support systems needed.

Expensive to do, but the results are well worth it from what ive seen.

yeah it can be done, but expensive and lots of custom fabrication

you also have choice of what goes first, turbo or super into the intake

i think stockymystock has a rb30 twin charged, turbo and super from memory

from memory on his he had the super going into the intake after the turbo

so when on take off the supercharger would suck through the turbo winding it up quicker

intake -> turbo -> super -> plenum - i think stockymystock had this (macgyver is his user icon on here)

or

intake -> super -> turbo -> plenum

Yeh thats how his was setup.

Worked very well! The power delivery was insane. No lag and power all throughout the rev range. I was fortunate enough to have been taken for a spin in it!

His car is what initially got me thinking about supercharging and twincharging.

the key thing though, he did it all himself :D

paying workshop rates for that, forget it.

Exactly! Hence why my rough guess was 20-25 grand. Ive done the suprcharging half of my own car and its cost me about 10 grand so far in parts, though some of it was support system bits. I would guess probably 6-7grand for supercharger related bits, maybe abit more.

I just have to do the turbo side of it now, which looks to cost maybe a couple grand more. But so far ive done everything myself and thats what has kept the cost reasonable.

If a workshop is doing the job and the word custom & fabricate are used in the same sentence, its going to cost you.

A workshop that has the machinery to do it in house, probably a month or so. A workshop that would outsource the work they cant do themselves, many months. It takes time to measure, design and test fit, modify and refit then finish to be ready for final assembly. That would be working on it almost everyday too.
