twin supercharging...
I'm a lexus owner to heart, but my 2nd all time fav car is the BMW 8 series.
What do you guys think of this twin supercharged set up?
Tuners...is this a clean set up to u? I can't really tell for sure..but from what I see it is.

Supercharging is MUCH easier than Turbo charging, I have some pictures of a my own custom desgin supercharger that I installed on a car pictures and details will be posted on a new thread by Monday.
On this BMW it was actuly easier to twin supercharge than singel because it uses 2 air intakes both placed on each side which is more conveniant for the installer.
Used double pullys on the Main pully where the Fan is(or was) the fan could have been pushed forward to allow the supercharger belt, or removed and replaced by 2 electric fans with a switch on/off button.
the supercharger pully it self could be adjusted very easly by using bigger or smaller size pullys.
One thing about this supercharger its the same as the Vortech superchargers ( I wonder if it is a Vortech) these superchargers look like a Turbo they are very good but not the best, the better ones are called Centerfugial superchargers they are much longer, self lubricated, and provide more pressure.
The set up is good out of 10 I would rate them 8, the superchargers are not semetrical to each other hence the one on the left can provide More of less pressure than the righ,, because the pipe from the compressor are not the same one if shorter than the other. this could feed one side of teh engine with more pressure than the other and could mess up timing.
Other than that it looks great and I garra hand it to them I would have not dared to twin supercharge anything, might be a little out of my budget and the facility I use.
