i dont want to be an *** but superchargers are superior technology compared to turbocharging, turbocharging has been around for a very very very long time, but superchargers are much much more expensive. with a supercharger (roots or centrifugal) you do not get the mass amounts of heat and you can get power throughout the rpm range. superchargers are much more streetable. the only drawbacks of superchargers are its impossible or hard to run a intercooler with a roots type blower and they don't make as much high rpm power as a big turbine

Superchargers are simply not a huge players in this field though.. All the worlds fastest hondas are all turbo.
Heat problems hardly pose problems anymore with very efficent IC's and excellent aftermarket management setups. Personally I would never buy a supercharger, they are very over rated.
