thanks,
Twin-charged (or twin-charging) is the proper term my boy, and can be done in many different ways go back to the first page and look at the diagram I posted, this is considered more of a hybrid-compound system with a by-pass valve when the supercharger is no longer efficiently compressing air compared to the turbocharger it opens, which then allows unrestricted flow to the turbocharger inlet by-passing the supercharger. So you get the low rpm grunt of a pulley-driven system and the high rpm boost of an exhaust-driven system. Google will be your friend, and you will have much to learn. Learn much, you will.
Thanks,
