I have vague memories of being told that the racing Lancia Delta Intergrales were Turbo Charged for top end power and Super Charged for low end,... once the turbo kicked in the Super Charger still span but delivered no additional boost. Is this true? Is it possible??

It can be done, I've seen it on a MkIII 'Tina which had an SM feature a while back...an awesome car. Mr. Nightmare might know of it, it was yellow with centreline wheels, it also had a slightly stretched front end to make the engine bay less of a squeeze!

Found an answer,.. but its not defiantive : "Introduced in late 1985, the car was the only one ever to have a supercharged and a turbocharged engine, producing 500+ bhp .As a reference this car did 0-100kmh in around 2.3 seconds!" From : www.tripleplate.com/vbulletin/archive/index.php/t-25 |

The Lancia was the Group B Delta S4 , it was said it could be heard 4 miles away by the shriek of the supercharger. when it was launched at the Estoril Grand Prix track in 1984 , Henri Toivenen demoed the car and it turned out his lap times would have qualified him 7th on the grid for the previous Portugese F1 Grand Prix!!
