Saw the video of this on YouTube over the weekend. Looks great! Would rather have a supercharger than a Turbo.

Centrifical supercharger, not a twin screw. For those whom don't know.

God I hope not... though this picture in OP is the prototype in the D1GP drift car (watched the youtube video from back in April, this is the same car)... so yeah, it probably was pretty expensive. Whatever they put out for retail will probably be a bit cleaner looking and less expensive.

Looks like that also features bungs for some sort of water/alcohol injection into the intake tract.

Not sure why there's two injectors tho.

Eventhough I know there's another thread on tb vs. sc, please tell me why you would rather go with a supercharger. Still learning about this stuff.

Turbo lag.

Long story short: I want more power at the bottom end of the RPM range for daily driving. Turbos need to spool up more before delivering the boost.
