It could just be me, but why would you run a turbo that small and a supercharger that big, it's back to front.

No idea, but the fact that there's no intercooler just means by the time the already hot air gets to the supercharger and gets even hotter, the turbo will have a nice time...

That engine is going to die so soon.

Its prob running on methanol and has some sort of water injection to compensate for no FMIC.

The turbo is only feeding from 2 cyclinders also so it would be slow to spool up.

That said, they are americans so who know whats they were thinking!!

a few points i noticed:

1. blower looks like an eaton M90 or M112 lysholm type.

2. that's a big enough twin-screw on a little 4cyl honda on its own, let alone twincharging it like that.

3. no aftercooler between the system and the engine = ridiculous intake temps, it must run meth or C16.

4. maybe the turbo has a large a/r exhaust housing, the main reasons to twin charge like this are to spool up a large turbo very quickly, and to keep intake pressures above exhaust back pressure, so the theory is you can run a larger snail for a smaller engine, with no real drawbacks.

all in all, a very strange looking twincharge, but the principles are the same as my setup.

perhaps there's a water/air intercooler between the blower outlet and the inlet ports on the head? they don't have to be large in volume and can be packed with icy water for quick track sprints. i like the remote-drive they set up for the eaton there, very innovative.

      I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.

      I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.

      It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...

      I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate

      Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
