I think it goes both ways, a lot of charger guys dont care for turbos, and vice versa. I dont have a problem with low rpm torque. I cut a pretty good 60ft. I feel with my rear mount. Yeah I may not be putting as much power to the ground as a charger, but I mean by the time they stop spinning from the low end torque roasting there tires on the street, im already moving and fully spooled and gone.
Plus a lot of us see most of our street races on the freeway, so I know that my rear is gonna help me more then a charger would.
theoretically IF i ever wanted to get past 12 psi then i would consider a turbo worth the money considering i would already have spent money on the supercharger.[/quote]
The amount of boost has nothing to do with it. My setup makes in the neighborhood of 600 rwhp at 7.5 psi.
like i said, both good in different ways. a little street truck works better with a turbo. if i had a 4x4 then i would definitely want a blower. most anything 2wd will have traction issues off the line on the street anyways though.

it does to an extent, at higher levels of boost you begin to make allot more heat with a blower vs turbo.

I'd love to figure how you do that. I have an LS1 with 6psi and I bet I don't make even 400hp.
The turbo guys DO NOT hate the blower guys. The blower guys eventually turn into turbo guys. I bet your brothers whipple is on a mustang. A lot smaller motor and intercooled. The end result is still garbage. Thats my opinion and it is based on Ownership experiance. Your basing your info on . . . . .. well we don't know.Quote:

my brothers Whipple is on a 350, because he likes a lifted truck to perform like a truck. down low. on all your little street trucks its different i guess.
edit: its not intercooled, just water/meth injection.
There it is. Your a 4x4 guy. Thats why you like supers so much. Just so you know. My little street truck, Its 4 wheel drive. :LOL:Quote:

Sorry I just thought it was weird you drive a duramax and were arguing for a supercharger. If I had to do it over I'd have a duramax now and a vette later instead of vette truck.
