Oh this old, tired argument again. :/
Each have their benefits, and each put a burden on the engine. Low mass centrifugal superchargers are far, far more efficient than roots styles were; and you have the added benefit of not bottlenecking your exhaust system.
-
Turbocharger is more efficient than a supercharger. It takes big power to run a supercharger, where a turbocharger is driven by waste exhaust energy.
If they are allowed, turbocharger > supercharger.
A turbocharger with the same setup, will make more peak power,and more torque than a supercharger. While you might have to have a turbo in its range to get the most out of it, the supercharger just is lackluster the whole way though.
-
Mate the imports have been catching up every year. We are getting more reliable, can spool faster and we are starting to make good power. Unless the V8 boys start to develop there engines I dont see them winning again any time soon. Were only going to keep getting faster.

look at all the top pro mod guys dude
scotty cannon jr,josh hernandez and jay payne all champions and record holders and they run supercharged cars...i only know 1 turbo car for the sub 5 and its frank pompillios car with a 6.16 so what are you on about? and wth are you on about knocked:S i was talking to your little friends below me not you geeez

each to their own and I have respect for the V8s too. A super charger does not eat a turbo for power in fact some of the quickest pro mods and doorslammers are now turbo'd. I havn't knocked that jag once so take it easy on your comments towards me please.
it better be i come all they way from aus to see that event
