Hey guys, I the future I would like to put a supercharger or a turbocharger into my 2010 V6.
What is the difference between the two? They both seem close in price, but which one is the better one to invest in?

lol Sipercharge ! all the way !!!!no really this is one of the most popular questions , whats your goals ? whats your budget ? whats your mechanical knowledge ? pros and cons to both . it really comes down to preference , just do alot of research before making a decision . both will turn your car into a beast

Alot of different factors play into them both... Personally I'm going with the turbocharger..

If you want more power per same psi, more efficient system, better gas milage, reliability, looking to make big power in the future, etc., but are willing to pay more.. Turbo. That simple. Superchargers will satisfy most of the people who drive these cars because it is cheaper to purchase.

If I had my way the X charger would be on the car already! But since I don't want a divorce I am without it!

Thats a supercharger site trying to sell superchargers.. WHAT DO YOU THINK THEY WILL SAY? LOL!

That is biased. I have seen that posted several times.

turbo 2.8

you ve seen it ...well did you read it ! I think there is some good points in there !
I 've owned both turbo and s/c . there are advantages and disadvantages to both
in the end it comes down to preference , I don't think you comments on gas mileage and
reliability a valid point , cause s/c uses a bypass valve when not in use , so the mpg difference is so small , that its hard to say if its the bigger injectors , tune or s/c
and as far as reliability . I 've never heard or read anything about a turbo being (more) reliable.
