just as all other things, technology makes advances. logic would dictate that the turbo succeeded the 'super'charger.
and wow, how come they didn't put this on 'Tactical to Practical'
look everytime youi calss the as being diferent your wrong ! Supercharger is like the Human Race ! and the types are the types of people white blac asian mexican etc but you call them all humans !
A Turbocharger is a Turbine Driven Suprcahrger Plain and simple ! So a Turbo isnt a wounder of creation as most people think like theres a Batele between the two when in fact the supercharger is the father of turbos !
