[QUOTE="GNBRETT, post: 15763055, member: 111882"] cause the supercharger sucks engine power simply to produce engine power. they run off an engine belt connected to the crankshaft. ur essentially powering an air pump with another air pump. it needs engine power to make power and therefore TQ is robbed which is why a Turbo is more efficient cause it uses the motors own heat to make power. waste energy is essentially converted to make power. on race gas at the higher levels of HP that gap between HP and TQ gets smaller with a blower especially a centrif blower. timing and other tuning changes make that possible with race gas thats not possible with straight 93 octane unless you thro Methanol at it then it becomes race gas essentially. an Auto with the properly selected TQ Converter will also help. also the Centrifugal blower will make less heat then the PD and make more HP in the upper boost levels but they require RPM to make power so therefore you lose a lot on the low end grunt which makes for a shitty street car.
