    10 psi on a t3/t4 50mm is going to be in the range of 275 i guess on say a built b series....where 10 psi on a 72mm turbo is going to be 450 maybe. The bigger the turbo compressor, the more air its moving while its pressurizing the air....superchargers tend to be less efficient at moving air and generally don't flow near as much air.

    Yes, take a turbo that same size as that supercharger and i guarantee there will be MORE overall flow.

    Is there science behind your picture or did you just feel like posting a picture of a hideous looking blower ....
