Wait.... This could be the new Ghustler thread!!!!! 
Fine, spoonfeed me then!
On a compound boost setup how would you bypass one or the other?? I know for S/C Turbo setups the S/C can only flow so much air.... Aren't there clutch operated S/C's so when a turbo kicks in and blows more air than the S/C can pump out the clutch kicks out and the fan just spins????? Sorta like how clutch fans work on RWD vehicles??
I post this knowing full well a google search can answer this in a few minutes.... I wanna be lazy like everyone else now

If money were no option it would be cool to try.

However, a compound setup is pretty nice too.
This is a local guy here in Austins setup. He has it on a 2jz swapped Z31. Car is sick!

What I'm referring to is how a Stock Supra is setup and not how the 300ZX is setup.

Possibly, boost aint my game, I only learn by doing some googling because of threads like this.

What about that S30/S31 TT setup from Austin? You were @ the same Nissan meet he was like a year or two ago, he had a Compound setup IIRC, I remember seeing the pics of the mad piping was going on in that car

I dont remember seeing that car, I saw an LS swapped 240 with nitrous and an RB swapped one.

Parallel are basically 2 separate turbos whose outlets normally join into one Intercooler then feed the engine.

[edit]
It was the RB swapped one:
A path of least resistance will yeild the best flow, when making big boost a dual setup can achieve this or by going with a larger diameter piping. If one is using 3" piping, space may not allow for larger piping to be used.
However, his setup does have independent piping.

The car was really tricked out, and is all about its performance. The intercooler setup alone was really nice. It was a top mount, however they way it was deisgned it only allowed cool air to be circulated through it.
The top portion vented through the hood and the bottom was sealed to channel airflow directly into it from the front of the car.
This car is no slouch, and like I stated before no shorts were taken in its build.
Some old writes up of it..

So how did the tranny swap go?

I knew this was a while back I remember being 5MT during this time.... but it was before my 5mt went *BOOM* and forced me to complete the swap.

Series turbos usually are 2 different sizes.
That video setup is something completely different, and very unique. I don't know what you'd call that, but it's definately a hybrid setup.

you guys want to see about turbo into supercharger or quad turbos or whatever come to my side of performance. diesel performance is where its at. big turbo feeding into little turbo or little feeding into big or twin into supercharger and even supercharger feeding into a turbo its all there.

Also there's a ton of interpretations of "compound" charging. Mainly it's interpreted as Supercharger + Turbocharger.

The video I posted isnt really unique setup. It's been done time and time again. That vid is just of a kit that was developed and being produced by Boostlogic.

Uh, everyone I've ever spoken to refers to a twin charge setup as a scer and tcer, and compound setups as different sized tcers feeding each other. Of course since their all feeding each other a tc/sc setup is technically a compound setup but most refer to it as a twincharged setup so that individuals know that its a combo if both a scer and tc.

Bi turbo, series, sequential, parallel, twin turbo, compounded, twin charged, etc, etc, etc, etc.
As for that setup you posted, I like it, do you have any more links for this, I haven't really seen that before.

I was trying to put twin and place them on my fog light but I have to make a lot of mods but I wanna do a small turbo in front and a big one behind it and try to make my max 4 wheel drive if possible

I think you should also try to make your max amphibious and asexual.... Now that would be a cool mod...

Dunno, I've always heared of SC/Turbo as Compounding, or Twin charging. Terms, it is what it is. There' s a ton of terms to describe the same thing, and many are easy to confuse, lol. Especially this.
Bi turbo, series, sequential, parallel, twin turbo, compounded, twin charged, etc, etc, etc, etc.

Volkswagen has the twin charger setup (compressor + turbo) on their 1.4 TSI engine that outputs 180hp from that tiny powerplant while managing to get 45mpg average... The power is equivalent to a 2.0 or 2.5 N/A engine while the consumption is still low...

were not saying it isnt possible, but the fact of the matter lies within the fact that no one here believes he is doing it. i mean ive personally thought out on how to twin turbo our cars and with enough work everything is possible

I think HKS used to have a kit out for the AE86, but it'd been disc. for a long time.
Like a chick with three knockers, it's interesting as hell, but given the chance I'd rock something more conventional. I'm sure it'd have a high maintenance, too ><

With a single turbo the VQ makes plenty of power, the car is still FWD and too much power is just a waste.
