Power wise what is the difference?Are turbos easier to tune?Seems like you don't many superchargers out there.

Got boost want snow

The supercharger has no lag and makes it's power from idle to top rpm. The turbo has to spool up before you have boost, but the turbo has longer legs and burn alot less fuel. I ride a front mount turbo and my bro rides a supercharged, they are close in every way but in a day he burns about 20litres more fuel. I can also turn my boost up, his is at a fixed level unless he changes pulleys. Hope this helps.

No sled in particular,just curious on why you don't hear as much about superchargers.Is it a money thing or performance.

Both are great, I like the option of adding boost if I want to and the fuel economy of the turbo is quite a bit better. If you want instant boost then a supercharger is the way to go. My boondocker front mount is probably as close to no lag out of a turbo as you will get without other adders ie: nitrous. Anything boosted is a complete blast. JMO
