In Reply to: THIS MAY BE A STUPID QUESTION-SUPERCHRGR & TURBOS? posted by Chad Bleakney on June 30, 2001 at 11:31:06:

The object of both a turbocharger and supercharger is to increase the airvolume in the combustion chamber. One is passively driven from the exhaust pressure, and the other is belt driven. There are positives and negatives to each approach, but I can't think of an advantage to have both on one engine?
