Things to consider
1. Turbos can be kept out of boost to save gas, and then when boost hits, it makes the car feel faster. Superchargers have instantaneous boost though if you prefer.
2. Turbos are Quieter. They a muffling effect. Superchargers on the other hand, don't. And they whine.

All preference. For those reasons, I prefer turbos though. BUT, ultimately, my biggest concern is weight, so heads/cam is what I ultimately ended up with (although I am back on stock heads but that is neither here, nor there).


you can keep an eye on the boost gauge to keep a supercharger out of boost too. as long as i didnt get on it hardcore and kept it below 0/positive pressure it got great gas mileage in my supercoupe.
