That is true...Very, But can you explain? What are the disadvantages of a turbo rather than a sc? BTW not trying to be a dick...haha. Dont take it the wrong way, Jsut want to know.
main disadvantage of a turbo vs a sc is lag. which can be negated slightly by going with a smaller turbo, or anti-lag (which is going to lead to the death of your turbo, amongst other things).
likewise, a sc is going to have a parasitic loss, but it will have the power on tap at all times, no waiting for the spool up, and if its running a large amount of boost, you dont have to worry about that power coming on too quick.
IMHO neither one is better than the other, or worse than the other. they each have their own applications where they can excell. i love the sc whine that you get with a blower, but i also love the spool up and sneeze of a BOV, but to say "turbos >>all" and actually belive it to be true, is pretty much making a public statement that you are a moron.
for instance, a small motor (like an import) would benefit better from a turbo, where they really dont have
that much power downlow to begin with, so a blower is just going to take more away from that, plus they make all their power on the top end anyways, so why not accentuate that where they excell. on the other hand, some american muscle that already has the power, why should they have to wait for spool up when they could have the power throughout the entire rev range, plus, they have the power to sacrifice, and its going to be minimal given the amount of torque they are capable of putting down (and more importantly, the added rotational mass of those 8 large pistons moving the belts //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif )
modern technology and tuning has closed the gap making the two forms of FI more similar, and its really more of a personal preference, but still, neither is better than the other //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
