The boost from the SC and turbo didn't stack -- that's not how doublecharging works. The idea with double-charger is that the SC prevents lag and gives great acceleration, while the turbo takes over at high RPMs to give great speed that the SC cannot match.
The concept has become much less popular in recent years simply because modern turbos are so much more efficient than the old style ones, and the turbo lag is no longer great enough to justify the additional weight, cost and complexity of adding a supercharger. |
