its simple, superchargers are not efficent at creating boost. you can get a larger turbo to make 20 psi and the iat will still be relativly low, but a supercharger to blow 20psi would create soo much heat that your iat's would sky rocket. root style blowers are only something like 58% efficent even at low boost pressures, a properly sized turbo can be as much as 78% efficent. so if anything twin charge the bitch. and superchargers use hp to make hp, turbo free hp.

and turbo lag aint that bad.

just think of it as Gods way of giving V8's a chance to catch up.

Turbo = Cheaper

LAG is not really the word to use... You're talking about additional power on tap.. Use a smaller turbo like sinister says or use one that better matches your setup

Its a 2003 6.0l, 364ci. 4l80e tranny. Hooker Super Comp Long tube headers, no emissions, no torque management, 4" air intake lol and dual 3" exhaust.

Its not a power house by any stretch but its fun. It has 273 gears in the rear and with that tranny I hit 2nd gear at 115km/h,... then it goes sideways. I have 373's sitting in the garage for it.

if you dont like the lag of the turbo...and turbos create more power...why not just put a small shot on it? 50 shot would be nice and give you a nice lil boost till a nice large turbo spools up.
