The only superchargers I know of that eat hundreds of hp are top fuel dragsters, but hey they have like 8,000hp and can spare a little. That guy has no idea what he is talking about and I hope kids dont read his comments and take truth from what he is saying. Idiots like that give american muscle cars a bad name so other kids will buy rice without even considering or gaining all the facts about american. I like how he said only rich people buy mustangs because i thought it is the best performance car for the money. I am sure if we were all rich we would have more expensive cars than a gt. If you think a mustang gt is expensive then you need to take a very hard look at reality.

This months HotRod has a quite interesting answer to a readers
question as to 'if in fact those electric blowers really work'?
They run the #s and it would require some fancy footwork and
a 2500W alternator dragging down as much HP as the darn electric
motor blower set-up would produce over the same naturally asperated
engine.
Just some interesting reading along the same lines as the OPs question.
