Can you notice the supercharger's parasitic drag off boost?
Just wondering can you supercharged guys feel the parasitic drag of the supercharger at low rpm and low loads i.e. normal driving?

Can you feel the difference when your A/C is turned on or off? My guess is you won't feel it in the low load, low RPM situations before boost is generated.

Good point its barely noticeable when the AC is on. Good to know the driveability of the car is unchanged at low revs. I was leaning towards supercharging rather then turbo due to the reduced complexity and issues with heat.
