Exactly.

No question, I prefer the sound of the turbo than the annoying whine of a super.

This poll proves that turbos are BETTER!

I was about to hunt you down for crossing my opinion with proven fact. God you are lucky for including that disclaimer.


DISCLAIMER:I am kidding

Actually the question was based on sound, and personally I think a S/C sounds better just because, well as the other guy described it, it sounds like a banshee as your flying down the track. However, im pretty sure it is common knowledge that turbos are much more efficient in creating power.

[GritMaster]

Depends. Twin screw compressors, like that on the Koenigsegg CCR are more efficient

How come your "slow regal" is faster than my car?

[Sl0wRegal]

Hell if i know there is some damn noisey whining contraption bolted to the top of my motor.
There is a whining noise coming from it all the time i think there is something wrong.

[Sandhawk]

[street_racer_00]

Wow...looks like the Turbo is starting to pull away in the poll.
