ummmm....wow, i don't even know what to say. so you're suggesting to add another turbo to the system, or a supercharger. :-?

go out and get this book.
"Maximum Boost": Designing, Testing, and Installing Turbocharger Systems'

you should be able to find it at your local book store.
i think you'll find answers there, and learn how these things actually work.

Lancia Delta Integrales had a supercharger/turbocharger combination....it had a shared pressure chamber and a sophisticated vacuum pressure system to ensure that low rpm boost from the supercharger and high rpm boost from the turbo were seamless. Needless to say, this system is a nightmare to develop with out big resources and lots of good engineering. A Twin turbo setup just doesn't make sense from a volumetric efficiency standpoint for a 2.0 L I4. Tune what you got buddy.
