Top fuel superchargers run up to 73 psi on a roots system. As for the Centrafugals lagging, That's not exactly true. They don't start making boost until 3-4k rpm, but there is not blow off between gear changes, the supercharger keeps spinning. Someone with one can pop in to fill in the details.

Turbo charger runs off of the exhaust. A super charger is belt driven.
Wrong. Belt driven are usually called blowers. They make Centrifugal superchargers now....

Centrifugal superchargers run off of belts. All superchargers run off of belts.

No they're defined as "gear driven"
