    As soon as I read the first post I thought to myself, this guy has got to be about 19 or 20 with his attitude, as well as his lack of knowing just how hard twin charging is. I click his profile and lo and behold, 20.

    Go turbo or go home. Let's not forget the transmission to handle a boosted LS4 is going to cost $3,000 to $4,000 alone.

    Just reading this thread, it sounds to me like the kid read about someone twin charging a car somewhere on Facebook and decided he had to do it too.

    Twin charging the LS4 is like having a three way while impotent, in the end it's still limp and you now have two severely disappointed women.

    Those are legit, my cousin Bobby Jimmy was saying how well his worked after he added another car battery then modified the blades to work like a pin wheel, he had to use some duct tape and some snuff to hold it all together, so the car smells a bit like tobacco when you really get on it.

    We might as well call it compression charged with your track record.
    That is two power adders as well. You're basically saying it's a thing to call a car with nitrous "boosted" lol.

    Two power adders doesn't make it twin charged, necessarily, but twin charged is of course two power adders.

    Well nitrous is technically forced induction since you are putting more oxygen in the engine than it can take in naturally.

    Yes, that is twin charged, and also two power adders. Nitrous plus forced induction does not make something "twin charged". I do not understand the confusion here.

    Nitrous and supercharged or turbo is two power adders, but is not considered twin charged..

    I thought you just push the boost button and watch for blue fire out back like in FnF?!?! You can have more than one? Do they work like Pokemon cards?

    We have a Supra JZ mill in a Cougar at the shop, says two-way twin turbo on it. Maybe its a confusion tactic, who knows?

    Just kidding. I know nothing of this but FWIW, I'd call anything that increases cylinder pressure boost. Anything that pressurizes the intake charge, I'd call forced induction.
