Hands down the turbo FTW!!! But, living in the great state of Comyfornia if you have to smog your choices of carb aproved turbo systems is very slim.

Supercharger will boost before a turbo
Supercharger is easier to install
But turbo will make more power

I like the sound of a Super Charger and super chargers seem more like American muscle then Twin Turbo..... Twin Turbos remind me of imports (which there is nothing wrong with imports)

Turbo for sure. Not only will it more or less be capable of making more power but its more usable power as well as far more customizable also.. For instance for traction, its far easier to make a car a faster car when you can dial in more boost up top and help keep the down low tq from lighting the tires up and not sacrificing top end. Along with that you have the option of swapping hotsides for faster spool or more top end, and once you have all the manifolds and such you can always benefit from swapping the turbo when technology changes and such.

If I was building a drift car or something then I would say yeah a SC might be a better choice, but when building a car to actually go fast.. Turbo all the way.

Again it depends. Blowers are cheaper, easier to install, are smog legal, and will make great power.

Turbos are more efficient than superchargers and will make shit tons of power. Also, they have have the "cool" factor going for them.

The answer is still "it depends". You can easily make 450 rwhp with a supercharged 331 and 8lbs of boost. You can probably make over 500 with turbos.

Racerx is a good guy to talk to about the pros and cons of both

I prefer Turbo over Supercharger but it all comes down to what kind of racing you plan on doing in the car.

The only thing I dont like about turbo motors is the extra plumbing (headache) and the fact that it quiets down the car sooo much out of boost.

Other than that turbo FTW but either way you will be happy

Go Turbo, that way you can talk smack to your ricer buddies if you have any.

When they talk talk crap that they got one, you just say hey, I got one too

Supercharger:

-less heat
-easier to tune
-easier to install
-CARB and smog legal in most cases
-instant boost (kenne bell, whipple, eaton)
-predictable boost (vortech, ATI, Paxton)

Turbo:

-more horsepower per PSI
-cool sound to impress ricers
-less parasitic drag
-excuse to buy a tubular k-member and coilovers
-flame spitting exhaust backfire
-not being able to pass smog, even if the only thing coming out of your pipes is water and the sound of childrens laughter
