hmm where they getting all that room for a turbo/supercharger?

hmm use the exhaust gas, spin the turbine, compress air and then feed the air through a charger again?? hmm why not go w/ more boost? HKS should shed some light

It just doesn't seem efficient in my mind... plus if it WERE efficient, some NHRA class might have tried it already.
