My thought on the cheapo upgrade was to go get a spare from the junk
yard, (tons of old 500 turbos laying about) and nabbing a second
(and third?) unit, then plumbing them together.  My current thought
was to put them in series hydraulically and stacked one infront of
the other in the airstream.

I need new lower shrounds anyhow, and planned to fab them, so I could
work something out.  Any timps, ideas?
