That would be a sequential turbo system. Very complicated but could be very successful if it was planned out correctly.
A system such as this would also be very costly. THe Supra used sequential turbos. Most hard core supra guys get rid of them for one big turbo conversion because they limit peak horsepower.
Yeah limits them to only 450 rwhp.

I doubt luck had a lot to do with it. I'm guessing a lot of hard work to get tot he financial position to where he could afford to put together a fine toy such as he has.

You can get closer to 600 rwhp with the stock turbos on a supra.
