Quick summary: Turbos, contrary to popular belief, mostly use the heat from the exhaust to turn the turbine...not the actual flow of the exhaust. The restriction in the exhaust system is quite little until the turbo gets spooled up when restriction is pretty much none. A high flowing exhaust system will make up the difference.
Modern technology MORE than makes the S/C obsolete. Turbo designs, variable geometry turbos, etc have made turbos EXTREMELY efficient. Check out the design of the new Lancer EVO's turbo...pretty cool shit...
And this is why you're a 'newb'. Don't worry...you'll learn. |
Oh my god, you made fun of my account name, how old are you to make such stupid insults? You must be around 15 years old, because it shows that if someone doesn't accept your opinion you just HAVE to fire back no matter what, either that or you are a 30 yr old grown up with a manhood the thickness of a pencil and the length of an eraser, that needs a BIG MOUTH to compensate for something SO LITTLE.

You know what little kid?
Maybe I should keep this name so I can let people like you make idiots out of yourselves.
EDIT**
Ok to make this post have a purpose after reading Neutrino's post... Turbo's from what I have seen have heat problems as they glow a nice red color, now wouldn't this make the intake charge hot as well?
Modern technology also adds more parts and complexity, which makes it less simple. S/c's will always have a place in F/I, from twin-screw to roots style.
