Havent seen it done to a commodore, but the Redcliffe Dyno torana had a twin blown and supercharged engine, which now lives in a tunner called LAZI-8. With a holden 6, I suppose you could get a super6 motor and set it up similar to the pic, but obviously on a much smaller scale.

I've heard that torana engine doesn't exactly run like everyone might think it should, like most of it's just wank factor... If someone can tell me it dominants everything that would be cool as, i think it looks (sic)!

Steve from RDP has had it at powercruise a couple of times. I believe the engine is now in a holden ute with the plates LAZI-8

i've seen that corola b4, had it set up so when the engine hits like 3000rpm or so the intake for the blower gets shut off and then the intake for the turbo is opened, it was a tricky setup but worked as it should and revved to like 6500 or more. twas in a mag and at the last summernats
