For you guys running turbos and superchargers, what is it exactly that you like most about one over the other. Specifically when it comes to the Driving Experience , why would u choose the one over the other

Unlike a child, I like to hear my stang wine. The TT is fine but I like the stomp vs the whoosh. Turbos are fine, I’ve owned em too but I feel muscle should stick with the SC.

Personally, I've always been a turbo guy since my first JZ car. Turbo's really aren't as complex as most people make them out to be.
More efficient than traditional superchargers and the ability to up the boost at the push of a button vs swapping a pulley has always won me over.

Do your own research, get what you want and forego the opinions. Everyone know the power delivery and capabilities of each type of system. Pick what meets your needs and budget. All can be fast, that's been proven.

I been looking at the bt big single kit looks fantastic. Not a fan of the front fender exit though.

I predict this thread goes 5 pages. And 90% of reply’s will have people justifying why they bought the kit they currently have.

Turbos if your most worried about winning a race. I prefer a low mount twin setup for heat management (lpf, hellion SS, Aldo are all proven). Not a good option for those poor SOBs needing smog compliant crap.

PD supercharger for hooning on the street. I’m not convinced these feel any crazier than a properly sized turbo in terms of the torque hit.

Centrifugal for budget minded. Still make good power. Don’t get the crazy low end torque of PD. Stick with Paxton/Vortech.

FWIW I’m stuck between saving a buck on centrifugal or saying f*&$ it and going TT. Leaning towards turbo since that’s what I really want. Buy once cry once.
Again, opinions rolling in.
