I've seen a Subaru WRX STi that had done this, and I'm sure you could do it to a FGT if you really wanted to...but what's the point, you're just going to be stressing the blower/belt eventually.
Why? That way you would built more pressure with less stress on the SC and TT. That is, they would each contribute a little bit to add up to a lot. And that means POWER.

Not sure what your point is or if you understand this thread. The graph shown in this thread shows RWHP.

For that price, I might just have it done locally. Its not that hard to build a turbo kit if you can get a quality manifold done.

Yes its easy to build a turbo kit (give a kid a pipe bender, and welder and some time). Now to build an efficient system is another story. And to build an efficient system that looks damn near stock is a whole other. Did you see the vids of that guy's joe's GTTT. It made sick power and was very fast no doibt, but did you see the kit itself. Not very pleasing to look it. Granted that may not have been the final version but Heff certainly got it all looking and running great.......get that thing back here Ryan.

60-130 should be in the low 5 to high 4 second range on street tires.

The Turbos can move more air that the twin screw ever could...the blower would just be a restriction point decreasing power and adding heat.

it doesn't mean power, the combo is hard to make run efficient, if you remember, I believe toyota did this on the MR2 back in the day
