One of the car shows did a story on a "twin turbo charger" kit for Corvettes, not sure if it was a C5 or C6. Turbo's and Blowers have been around forever, most big rig diesels are Turbo Charged. Turbo Charger works off the exhaust gas and the Super Charger/Blower's are belt driven.

How much boost would just a Blackwing make? 10lbs? They are supposed to add about 30hp...that's what the website says anyways.
