Installing two turbo chargers?

So I have a 2000 ex that I've owned for a few months now. It has a three inch catback, a turbo charger, front and rear strut braces, and an inter cooler. I'm pushing just under 200 horses, and I was talking to a friend the other day while we were looking under our hoods (he drives an '06 accord) and he mentioned i had a lot of room under my hood. I realized he was right and it made me think maybe i could add a second turbo charger. Would it be possible to add another turbo charger? Anyone out there that's done it? How much would it cost to have it installed?

Re: Installing two turbo chargers?

Sure you could add another turbo but more is not always better. A properly setup and tuned engine with one turbo can be better then a twin turbo.

200 hp is not much, build your engine and work with what you have and a larger turbo.
