the turbos you are talking about are two different setups. when a smaller feeds a larger its called a compound setup. can be done with a super and a turbo or two turbos. then yoiu have sequential. this is when one turbo feeds off all cylinders then when a certain level is reached another is added with valves to spin 2 turbos in twin turbo mode.

About the supercharger, we have a grain vac on the farm that uses 90% of a 4440's pto horse power and torque that that tractor had to give, it actually over heated multiple times in the summer.

They REALLY start to suck power once you start building pressure. The pressure relief valve is set to 16 psi, and the vac relief valve is set to .5 bar.
