Default Twincharged Honda?

I posted this in "Power Adders" but I figured id get more response here, so I was wondering what has every heard about Twincharging? and what is everyones opinion on Twincharging an d16z6?

I heard its a nightmare to get tuned and you dont make as much power as just a turbo but It was interesting to see if you could give a honda more decent low end with the already insane high end.

"twincharging" is a waste of money and time...its overkill..dont need it..
a single turbo would be best...

there was a twincharged CRX running a D16 i think a couple years ago at the CRX meet, he was using a ported pontiac charger and was outflowing it

and then he pulled out, gassed it and BAM, double boosted aftermath

the roots ype blower becomes a restriction after the turbo really gets going.

If it was really to work well you'd probably want to bypass the supercharger after the turbo spools up. The roots blower in this case would have to be mounted in the front of the engine and piped to the throttle body instead of mounted in the intake manifold. But then you have no room for a turbo setup. Waste of time but it is kinda interesting from an engineering standpoint.
