Re: turbo charged or super charged

Lets all try to stay respectable guys.

Also to the topic at hand. It depends on alot of variables which is the better choice. Most important usually being cost followed by bay room but it also depends on supercharger model to turbo model. Obviously different supercharger with different pulleys are going to have different characteristics and same can be said of different turbo models.

We also have to look (like was pointed out, which engine is driving them). A 4 Cyc, V6 & V8 + will obviously produce different results on each. To each there own, we can all make recommendations on which we think best suits us and someone else but if power is the name of the game turbo will always be the way to go. If Ease of install (and in this case money) with added performance is your preference then a supercharger may work for you.

Each have there place and purpose but IMO they both meet the same need for different people and once driven the process of injecting that boost is identical (in centrifugal units that is)
