The dealer supercharged me instead of my engine ):

[kar.antares]

Legend has it Scotty's Celica is Supercharged!

[doit_vehicles]

One of the few guys on youtube who likes superchargers 😉

[jasonneal]

Yeah, I don’t have all day waiting for boost to build, it’s my HP and I want it NOW!

[Scuba_Bro]

I’ve installed both on my cars and for city driving I had more fun with supercharger with the instantaneous blast at the low end! But I did love my twin turbo Supra on the highway! That damn thing just squeezed top speed better than any supercharger I’ve ever used.

*Love the Whine of a Supercharger, but love the Spool of a Turbo* Life's great paradox.

That ceiling stain was gettin me so bad 😂😂

I have had both. Turbos can be troublesome in regards to heat management. They add ALOT of heat up in the engine bay. Turbo exhaust manifold brings your intake air temps way up and can also melt some of your plastic parts that are near it. You can also heat soak your inter cooler really quick. Couple of hard runs and your car is now not fast anymore because your car is pulling timing to deal with the over heated air that’s causing the engine to knock due to pre ignition of the gas. Many of these issues you don’t have to deal with with a blower.

Was having such a hard day today, only scotty can cheer me up :)

Supercharger : gets boost faster.
Turbo : gets more boost.

@3:55 that leak on the roof should get fix. Mold will decrease a person's horse power!

Scotty, you left out a few major points. A turbocharged car will make more HP per LB of boost than a supercharged car. Torque? A good turbo setup will significantly exceed the gross torque of a supercharged car. That being said, all the points made in the video are correct. A supercharger kit is MUCH easier to install and package than a turbo kit and the under hood temps are lower as well.

You know what's even simpler than a supercharger?

NA baby 😎

1 like = 1 Supercharger
1 comment = 1 Turbo

[johnplayer]

Scotty quoted Kurt Cobain, now I've seen everything

[solarflare]

A good example of why supercharger are the best choice.

[eltrouble]

There's pros and cons to both super and turbochargers. Just depends on what your goal is in mind.

[Joeberklich]

Both are good choices for making good power. Some of the negatives about a supercharger is they put added stress on the crank and they take hp to spin them

[Abiwrl]

I love learning with Scotty. I always wanted to know what the difference was between the two. Thanks Scotty!!
