When I was in mechanical engineering student in college I designed turbocharger that was coupled to an electric motor through a centrifugal clutch for faster spin up. Of course, that was in Texas in the 80's and gas was about 65 cents / gallon so I wasn't really motivated by economy. I was going for negligible turbo lag. The clutch mechanism was a real pain (and probably not really feasible because of the rpm involved). It never occurred to me to just use a second compressor in serial... That’s really cool.
