Hi,
A bit OT, but just for interest, the last of the big aircraft piston engines of the 1950's used a concept called "turbocompound".
The R-3350 (that's 3,350 cubic inches) had a two-stage supercharger and also three turbos. Each turbo run off 6 cylinders (it was an 18 cylinder, 2 row, air cooled radial). A quill shaft ran from the turbos and connected to the crankshaft via a fluid drive. Each turbo delivered over 160bhp. The supercharger required 400hp to drive it at 20,500 rpm. The engine could maintain 3,500hp up to 12,000ft altitude. It had an 80 gallon oil tank - dunno what that is in litres, but it's a lot.
