Default Twin charging an engine

Ok, I know its been asked before, but what issues are there with super-charging a cossie YB, as well as using the turbo as normal?? I recon with some non return valves and a suitible by-pass for the 'charger when the turbo comes alive and it should work perfectly once mapped?
obviously using a small charger to "fill in" the bottom end performance of a larger turbo would reap huuuuuuge benefits of drivability etc??

definitley possible! some bloke done it to an evo 8 in the u.s ..... he made his own valve for the switch over between the charger and turbo.

he was running a 2.3 stroker with maaaasive turbo that spooled 10psi by 8000 rpm normally... with the charger he was hitting the boost by 5000 rpm but with the charger coming on straight away awesome accellaration...

would be very hard to make and all parts would be custom but if it worked would be very cool!
