I have seen tons of videos of 70mm cars that get raped from a roll simply because of the things I listed above. Auto cars with turbos will simply tear shit up.

DEFINETLY! Auto cars with turbos are the best! But this car is a manual.

Maybe, maybe not... Im just stating facts, a turbo system is more efficient than a supercharger system. Why ? Because a turbo system runs off of exhaust gases, unlike a supercharger system that generates boost from the crank. In a supercharged system there are deficiencies, such as belt slippage, which create a loss of power.. In a turbo app that is not a problem.

Compound, only way to go.

There will be a day when sub 3 second 1/4 mile blast are attained all thanks to compound boost.
