Why turbo? The general wisdom seems to be supercharging is better for big v's.....

My personal opinion is that supercharging is better for all engines, people seem to prefer turbo's though.

's the concept of "getting something for nothing", though I doubt in fact that this is the case, really; yer don't get anything for nothing.
who knows.
Hmm, what, like bits of turbo vane in yer oil :0)

Having owned both, I'd say that supercharging is much better from the driving point of view. Turbocharging is theoretically more economical, though my XJR would return 19-20 mpg whilst my 200SX managed only 25-26mpg, despite having half the capacity, only just over half the output, a manual gearbox and rather less weight to drag around.
I've still got the tatty Janspeed pair which will need refurbishing and one new manifold, same offer as before, have a look, have a try and make me an offer, proceeds to charity.
