That's some PSI right there.

Call me old fashioned, but I don't think superchargers are designed to be run in series.
Probably could have achieved the same or greater boost with big twin turbos, and kept it street legal. Looks like there is plenty of available room in the engine bay.

Does that $8000 include upgrading necessary engine and drivetrain components to handle the increased compression and torque?
My trucks valve train and drive line could handle a supercharger or two. Both are pro-built and rated up 1000hp.
But the fuel system would need much larger pumps and the brakes would need a dramatic upgrade.
500hp/500tq is as far as I want to push the drum rear brakes. It would mean a disk conversion, which also means a new rear axle. At which point I'm into the drive line and...
Nah. Built this truck for strength and reliability first, speed entirely secondary.
@Render @voltronic @mikeflstfi the lightning?

Dual or twin superchargers have been a thing since late WW2 (tanks and fighter planes). But yes...
Those Roots style superchargers are not designed to run in series. I suspect that at least two of those are dummies.
Below is a twin supercharger kit that would fit on my truck engine. If I was inclined to spend $8000 on making my truck even faster but much less reliable.
