Edit- Also read this or just skip ahead to the intercooler section

Quoted from this article (
http://www.autofieldguide.com/articles/050103.html
)on why car manufacturer are looking at forced induction to increase efficiency "a supercharger has a few advantages over a turbo, says Streeter. "First, it doesn't soak up exhaust heat "
Those references contain only hand waving, generalisations and interviews with supercharger salesmen.
Do you have nothing more to offer? Like actual measurements of boost temps?
