Yeah, I'd like to see the dealership tech's face when you bring that in for scheduled maintenance.

Overkill would have been if he added nitrous.

If the turbos are big enough and that is a clutched AMG charger, then it probably is useful. There used to be twincharger kits available for the MR2's and such .. but the cost outweighed the performance gains ... most people just put up with the lag with a huge turbo and got the same power for half the price.
