the Turbochargers adds some horsepower and acceleration. But superchargers add a lot of torque to your engine. I personally would go with the turbocharger, they are efficient, adds good acceleration, and they are cheaper to buy.
They are about the same price turbos dont kick in until 3000 or 3500 rpms on up supers dont require this they both add about the same hp and torque. turbos are made really for smaller engine and supers for bigger
A turbocharger is not typically more powerful than a supercharger but is able to offer a boost at lower speeds. The turbocharger is powered by engine exhaust while the supercharger uses power from the drive belt.
Using a compressor in the form a turbo or supercharger to force air into an engine to make more power.
An electric supercharger is essentially an electric motor run off a car's alternator driving a high speed fan which attempts to force more air into a car's air intake. The idea is the same as a turbocharger or supercharger, the more air and fuel forced into the combustion chamber the more power that will be developed by the engine. The only difference between a turbocharger or supercharger and the electric supercharger is that the electric supercharger is limited by how much power the car's battery and alternator can supply whereas a turbocharger and supercharger is limited by the amount of power the engine can supply which is significantly greater in comparison.
Neither is safer. they are two different ways of achieving the same thing i.e. compressing the air being fed into an engine. A supercharger uses engine power and is less efficient, but responds quicker. A turbocharger uses exhaust gas pressure, but there is a time lag penalty.
A turbocharger would be more better because you can get more power efficiently than superchargers.AnswerYes turbos are more efficient, but a supercharger will give more low RPM torque which can help a lot for towing, especially at low speeds.
A turbocharger increases engine performance by pressurizing the air going into the engine, allowing more air and fuel to enter the engine cylinder and create more power. Exhaust gas from the engine spins a turbine. That energy is then used to compress air from the air filter and (force feed) it into the engine. It works similarly to a supercharger. A supercharger uses a drive belt connected to the engine instead of exhaust pressure. The result is increased performance but decreased fuel economy. In short, turbos make cars go faster. Significantly.
A supercharger, basically feeds more air into the cylinders to drive the pistons, so more combustion with the fuel is possible, and therefore more power. It is driven mechanically (directly from the engine) so it works straight way, opposed to a turbocharger which works from the exhaust pressure, and suffers 'turbo lag'. A supercharger is a device that makes the pressure of the fuel-air mixture in an internal combustion engine go up. A supercharger allows the engine to be more efficient.

by using a supercharger u get 30 to 40% more horse power than when compared to an engine with out a supercharger....
The supercharger uses a belt to drive a compressor that feeds more air to the engine such that more fuel can be ignited; which produces more power. This does have a parasitic drag on the engine, negating some of the gain in power. The turbocharger uses otherwise wasted exhaust gas heat and pressure energy to spin a compressor. This does not have the same parasitic loss as the supercharger and therefore yields a higher efficiency.
Turbo and superchargers are examples of heat turbines used to compress and pressurize intake air charges for higher power outputs. A turbocharger uses the heat energy from exhaust gases to drive its turbine. In comparison a supercharger uses the mechanical energy of the motor through the drive belt system to run its turbine. A supercharger produces parasitic power and fuel efficiency losses through this set-up. For these reasons a turbocharger has higher efficiency.
Turbocharger is used to boost the air quantity in air fuel mixture with the help of exhaust gases coming from engine. Large amount of air fuel mixture helps to give more power output. So to increase power output of our engine we use a turbocharger.
