ok, just a couple of things
where is the air inlet for the supercharger? i can see the 2 k&ns for the turbos, but nothing for the supercharger
also, where are the boost pipes for the turbos?

Turbos feeding the charger. Charger feeds inlet through the IC.

Taken from the FAT site:
quote: The granddaddy of them all. This kit is simply amazing. Forget all that you know about forced induction. Forget the lag. Forget the limitations. Let go, and then there is this compound charge kit. So what is a compound charge kit? It's supercharged, turbocharged and intercooled.
This kit was engineered to be the finest boosing system in the world, and to match the horsepower and torque of a large V8. This system creates 600hp. With zero lag!
Price on the kit is estimated at $9995. Please contact us for more information about this kit.

Looks to me like the charger kicks in first from 0rpm then it disengages (check out the pulley on it, t'is similar to an air con item) when the turbos come in.

Yeah, but the pulley looks like an aircon pulley, so it can be switched on and off. The outside of the pulley may always spin but the inside wont.
I think it will be rigged to a boost solenoid so when the turbos start to spool it will disengage.
