Study Notes
Supercharger Advantages
- A key advantage of superchargers is their ability to provide immediate power at low RPMs, where turbos often lack boost.
Comparison to Turbochargers
- Supercharger systems are generally simpler in design and installation compared to turbocharger systems.
Reliability Perception
- Supercharger systems are often perceived as being more reliable than turbocharger systems due to fewer moving parts and no turbo lag.
