Thank you
not quite, supercharger systems use a belt to spin what is essentially a air compresser to force more air into the cylinder, a turbo charger uses exhaust gas to spin one side of a turbine on its way out of the car, the other side of the turbine spins and compresses clean air forcing it into the cylinders
