As heat and RPM build the exhaust begins to spin the freewheeling turbos faster and provide more air than the supercharger requires so there is pressure now between the turbos and the supercharger which enables the supercharger to compress it even further than just by itself - very similar to a compound turbo effect at peak power. Hope that makes sense - feel free to correct if I'm wrong.

It's giving me a headache trying to draw that out in my brain  Only way I can imagine it, seems like the turbo would work against the supercharger.... But I did a quick search on it and it does seem to work. I would like to see that system drawn out. Would that set-up be more benneficial than supercharger feeding the turbos?
Right now I'm looking at buying a big truck turbo....for future use
