Turbo or Super Charger?
Which is better and why? I love the turbos but it seems it removes the natural muscle car sound

In a perfect world I would take turbo over supercharger.
The main reason would be for the degree of control you can have in controlling boost over having to swap a pulley for more/less power. They each have their pros and cons though. |

I would go supercharger over turbo for the fact that there is more modifications and problems that you can run into with the turbo and i prefer the whine sound over the sucking sound in muscle cars. But to each their own.

Supercharger vs Turbos
They both have their pros and cons.
Turbo = high end power Supercharger = low end torque and power all the time The Turbo takes away the v-8 rumble. The Supercharger looks better. V-8 get the supercharger !! V-6 get 1 or 2 turbos !!

I was thinking about going the twin-turbo route when the warranty is up for my upcoming V-6. I would definitely SC the V-8 personally.

it just looking for daily driver go SC
looking for high HP.. and fast times go Turbo.. turbo doesnt take away from muscle car sound.. turbo is a whistle sound.. I think turbo is the best but for easy of use and install Im going supercharger this time.
