i would use a eaton chager where the ac pump would be and a turbo on tha back, stand alone ecu would be able to do it i would have thought have the charger cut off at a set revs once turbo has started spoling up ..... just my thoughts bit likt the golf TSi i think it is ...

Okay, gonna sound a bit daft here maybe. Are we saying that the supercharger is going to bring the boost in first ? I thought they developed their boost higher up the rev range ? At least when I looked into Rotrex that was the case, hence I want to go down the turbo route. Or is the Eaton charger a different kettle of fish ?

Well I thought I could use a charger that produces constant power then the turbo would kick in afterwards with the two running together, but judging from the what has been said on here is that the charger would have to cut out before the turbo.

I would like to get them working together but that brings another question of will the block cope with that sort of pressure?

I am going to do it now that I have a company car, just don't how long it will take and I need to get all the info first.

well may i suggest chatting to those people on the links above and seeing what they did plus getting a decent drawing of the VW 1.4 lump and then tell us what the **** you do .... LOL :P

Genuinely interested in this so please keep us posted on your findings...

very interested in this also, again i am not terribly knowledgable regarding this matter, but seeing as a supercharger supercools the air on the intake, and a turbo works off of used exhaust gasses, subject to getting the correct mapping i dont see why it wouldnt be possible, with something like an extra 100 bhp from both of the f.i devices?
