Hey  Mark,

Let's point fingers and name names. I can imagine Trevor trying  and maybe
Dawson. And Mike Peterson for the fun of it.

I don't  follow your reasoning on the intake side though.

Snip ----
I would  first start with a custom intake manifold, small long diameter
runners for  the small turbo, and then a flap and a large volumetric are for
the big  turbo. The idea would be to set the flap with spring pressure to
require  the big turbo to overcome to open it.
Second would would involve plumbing  the small turbo's turbine and wastegate
into the big turbo's turbing and  wastegate. Then one would set the wastegate
on the small turbo to open  while the compressor is still in the effiecient
range of the turbo. Say  never let it see much more than 16 PSI, therefore
not needing a intercooler  and the added space and plumbing it requires.

Three very strong candidates indeed. They all have the  where-with-all, 
resources, passion, and "insanity" to not only try but to  succeed.
No Trevor, Dave, and Mike - I'm not calling you insane. It's just an  
expression - sort of.
