Used to buy parts for turbochargers (Garrett, or, for some of you,
AiResearch) while I lived in Japan. Don't know a whole lot about how each of
them works, but when I asked some of our engineers about which was better,
they all said that a turbocharger was better (surprise). You get better
low-end performance with a supercharger, but a turbocharger was much better
at speed. At least that is what they told me. At the time, I was more
interested in castings and machining than performance.

Subject: Turbocharger??
There is alot of talk about the supercharger...but has anyone heard
ANYTHING about a turbocharger. The only reason I ask is that I have an
air conditioner right where the supercharger is supposed to go. Any
insight would be appreciated...
