Scotty Kilmer There's one more advantage to a supercharger vs a turbo, they don't deaden the exhaust note like turbos do. So they sound a whole lot better. Correct me if I'm wrong.

@godofdestructiondiecast6756 6 лет назад

Scotty Kilmer hey Scotty I like your videos and I was looking at this video about supercharger versus turbocharger I rather go with a naturally aspirated engine that way when those superchargers or turbochargers go you got to pay a lot of money to replace them you have no problem with a naturally aspirated engine but I do like ram-air what you think about that

@fh276 6 лет назад

Centrifugal superchargers, are nothing more than belt driven turbos. Granted, you can change pulley sizes. But they don't work from idle. Unlike a Rootes, blower. What you don't realise, a turbo is always spinning. And providing torque, with no loss to the motor. And next to no lag, properly sized, for the application. 400 ponies, at my back tyres, with a tame setup. More available quite, easily! Oh, and i am an "old school" guy. Impressed the shit out of me, especially the fuel economy! I'll take that at, $6.7275 a gallon. That is a 4.5 liter gallon. 8 liters, per 100 kilometers. I can get, less than that, at 110 kmph. Like, 7.8 litres, per 100.

@nit0134 4 года назад

Here's what I think. Turbos are better for highway pulls and taking it to the dragstrip, but superchargers are way better for daily driving. Since you have turbo lag, when you're daily driving you're never really gonna get or feel that power unless you're doing random pulls on the highway, where as superchargers the power is always there and can get insane pulls just because you put your foot down a little while you were coming off a red light lol

@88Terrors 6 лет назад

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.

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

@102wingnut 6 лет назад

Micheal Dimitrick depends on the type of each you are using. A Whipple or Roots -type charger does move air pretty linearly with little lag but the ProCharger and similar radial style compressors increase boost exponentially so you still have to get the revs up high to get the full boost. A good twin or twin-scroll turbo will minimize the effects of turbo lag but they do add complexity to your setup.

@331SVTCobra 6 лет назад

Micheal, are you being sarcastic? A centrifigal blower doesn't make full boost till the entire engine revs sufficiently. A turbo spools up just as fast as rotational inertia allows it to. "More boost" has nothing to do with supercharger/turbo, but is determined by sc gearing or turbo sizing, and in either case there's a pop-off valve.

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.

@angelgjr1999 5 лет назад

Sure a turbo will make a little more torque. But a supercharger does it a lot more quickly. I’ll take a supercharger anyday.

Superchargers just sound better. You get the whine, and it doesn't muffle the exhaust like a turbo. And you made great points about it being a lot easier to install, and usually a bit cheaper. But for raw performance, a properly sized and tuned turbo will be better 9 times out of 10.

@chevy5137 4 года назад

Nice, I like the instant power of a supercharger too and the whine it makes is music to your ears! You should have talked about the different between centrifugal superchargers and roots superchargers, personally I prefer a top mounted roots style supercharger to a centrifugal supercharger mounted at the front of the engine. I've seen some really cool complete roots style supercharger kits that even include a tuner for the engine made by companies like edelbrock that are made for late model car and made to fit under the stock hood. Recently I saw a video of a roots style supercharger being installed on a late model Camaro and it replaced the intake manifold and sat in the valley right there and was nice and low profile and it looked super clean, the engine looked almost stock when it was done you could barely tell it was there!

@redsmallblocks15 6 лет назад

Except for the superchargers on the Detroit 6-71/8-71 etc that go for a million plus miles w/o being touched. They also end up in commercial boats where they last 10's of thousands of hours in some of the worst conditions possible running hard all day without any issue. Remember, a boat engine is under heavy load 100% of the time while underway, so it never reaches a point (short of surfing down a giant wave) where the engine isn't in conditions comparable to you pulling a 10,000 lb load up a steep hill and maintaining that speed, all day, every day, which means they're under high boost 100% of the time.

I own a 2015 Audi s4 with the supercharged engine and it’s amazing!

@oddyseus91 5 лет назад

I own 2 cars. One has a Supercharger('05 Monte Carlo SS Supercharged w/3800 Eaton M90), the other a Turbocharger('05 Legacy GT w/2.5L EJ255 VF40 Turbo). Both are excellent, and with proper tuning you can have near-zero lag. I very much like the instant boost you get with the supercharger, and If one wants more power and their car can handle it, they can get a smaller pulley(Belt driven) for it for cheap and get extra boost. One advantage that Turbochargers over the Supercharger is they are not Parasitic and require no power. Thanks for the videos Mr Kilmer, enjoy them.

@joeydelmarsjr.646 5 лет назад

but you forgot to mention more frequent OIL changes with a turbo, where as a SC only needs oil change every 80-100k miles :), and parasitic is minimal

@mechablade5327 5 лет назад

Isn't a supercharger more taxing on the engine, and doesn't the turbo has the capacity to give more power?

@nit0134 4 года назад

You can mess with turbos a little more and it's easier to get a lot of power, yes. But turbos tend to die more because of that. Superchargers are more reliable.

Pretty sure turbocharger were originally called turbo superchargers before being called turbochargers

@austinreed997 4 года назад

It just depends on how the air gets pushed. A supercharger is belt driven, turbo is exaust. You can get centrifugal superchargers which are pretty much just a belt driven turbo if you like the blowoff and want instant power.

@Alycookie100 6 лет назад

Scotty but most of the modern cars comes with turbo charges why? You make my day man lol

@mardamek 6 лет назад

I personally prefer natural aspiration, but if I had to choose, supercharged engine is still closer to that natural power delivery than a turbocharged engine. I've driven a turbocharged (diesel) car with automatic transmission and it could be a dangerous experience at times. Turbo lag, combined with delayed downshifts, was like asking for trouble in city traffic, or during lane changes on the highway. Also, a supercharger installation is something I could probably manage myself, while a turbocharger add on seems more involved and elaborate. This IS a legitimate concern as well because that feeds into the cost factor. After all, we're not discussing things in theory just for the heck of it.

@mattarnold198 5 лет назад

@@knowbull5hit590 Depends on the shape of your intake (and space available for it) - if it's rectangular then you can use more of the space for forced induction by using 2 turbos. They would also spin up faster than a single turbo of the same combined diameter. You could also have them spin in opposite directions to balance each others' accelerational/decelerational force.

@SavageBodybuilding 6 лет назад

Superchargers are slightly cheaper then a good turbo kit for my car at least. But if you want to make the most power turbo is the way it's easier for them to make more power then a supercharger plus if you see any races with 2 guys around same hp lvl turbo guy usually takes it since they make more power up top aka higher rpm lvls. I went supercharger on my car since I didn't want to make anything over 800 whp.

@simonclapp6186 6 лет назад

Less efficient: the biggest disadvantage of superchargers is that they suck engine power simply to produce engine power. They’re run off an engine belt connected to the crankshaft, so you’re essentially powering an air pump with another air pump. Because of this, superchargers are significantly less efficient than turbochargers.

@sandonero633 6 лет назад

Don't forget the extra belt causes vibrations and wears bearings faster.

@akellerseattle 6 лет назад

Blehtubezz Aus a turbo isn't parasitic at all as it runs off of exhaust that's already been pushed out of the motor. a supercharger is because it runs off the crank.

@bondosho 6 лет назад

Nathan Plunkett to achieve similar torque and power compared to turbo, you have to put more strain on the engin

@nathanplunkett1633 6 лет назад

Turbos do not generate torque, only a supercharger does.

@salvatoreshiggerino6810 6 лет назад

If they want fuel efficiency, what about going the turbo compound route, like the Napier Nomad? I'd imagine it would have the same benefit without the lag.

@frankeggers4024 6 лет назад

That was a good presentation. It fairly covered the advantages and disadvantages of turbochargers vs mechanically driven superchargers. However, in recent years, much as been done to reduce turbo lag so it's less of a problem than it used to be even though it still exists.

@AdmiralRustyShackleford 6 лет назад

Modern TVS and twin screws aren't the old inefficient blowers of the 60s. They have bypass valves so they don't build pressure at idle or coasting, they don't heat soak and have less parasitic loss.

you could add forced induction to any engine. whether youd wanna go turbo or super depends on the kinda build youre going for

+ODST172 Yes, but when adding forced induction, depending on the engine and the amount of boost, you may need to upgrade the internals as well. Some engines can handle more than others.

I don’t know if you brought this up but a supercharger reaches max boost/power at max revs but a turbo reaches max power/boost when it spoils up. So you don’t have to rely on revving your engine to get max power

turbos hold boost. superchargers build boost as rpms rise unless you have a waste gate system like turbos. you use power from the motor to spin the supercharger. turbos are free energy. the excitement of turbo lag is breathtaking.

@summushieremiasclarkson4700 3 года назад

My opinion is that it is better to have a performance/stability goal than a power goal. I'd be fine with 500hp so long as the daily ability isn't affected.
