Yes, because there's more to it than just redlining the engine. You also have to know where your usable RPMs as well as matching the speeds to the corners. When my 240sx was supercharged and only 220HP, it was definitely faster around the corners in Willow Springs than when I was driving my friend's 350HP S14.

It had more usable power band, plus easier to hold the accelerator down through the corners all the way through than a peaky turbo.

I miss my supercharger build....then I forgot to put meth to cool it T_T
