TwinCharged(Turbo&Supercharged) GT VW's
http://www.popsci.com/popsci/automot...cbccdrcrd.html First oem twincharged car I've read about, and it's made for fuel economy not performance :[ I guess it's an alternative to their turbocharged diesel engines.

Re: TwinCharged(Turbo&Supercharged) GT VW's
in the late 80's early 90's they had the first gen MR-2's with superchargers stock on them.. and HKS designed a kit that made them twincharged... with a t-25 turbo. The kit was pretty expensive but, made the 1.6L powerplant in the MR-2 put down 350HP and run a mid 11 secs in the quarter mile.. which is pretty impressive at 12-14 psi. I believe those were the specs. There were only 5 kits made and are now out of production. but what a lucky 5 people to have a light, quick and nimble car... MMMMmmmm no boost lag... awesome.

But from the factory, the March is the only one I've heard of, until the latest offering from VW.
