The only other major issue I can see is the ECU throwing some major overboost codes once you hit about about 22-23 psi combined between the two...Though I'm not completely sure if codes would happen since only 14psi would be pushed from the S/C and thus the crank and the other 14psi would be pushed by the turbo, spooled up from the exhuast gases.
that about sums it up....
