so the belt turns the supercharger which sucks in air? is that how all super chargers work?

and turbo chargers run off the exhaust air or something and cools it?

Dude, that guy has got to build an engine to run with the giant blower. I wanna see it run a quarter. It would either be glorious or it would explode, and either way is entertaining
i'd say a big wheel stand to engine exploding lol

The supercharger cmpresses the air and forces it into the engine.It has a step up impeller that compresses the inlet air.
Yes, turbos run off the exhaust and the turbo has a step up impelller that compresses fresh air into the engine.

this is a noob question but what is a blower and what does it do? i've noticed on the newer stangs that they haev something like that with the belt way up there. what exactly is it?
A blower is a supercharger. It runs of a belt like an alternator or PS pump. It essentially forces air into the motor at a greater rate than what the motor can suck in naturally. The ones you see on newer stangs are probably 03+ cobras, they came supercharged from teh factory.
actually i figured what i was thinking about and it's from 05+ mustangs they have what looks to me like like upper intake but it has a belt attached to it. whats that?
