Does this mean less torque or is this all be completely wrong. That is also true, I was wondering about bolt-ons for accentuating certain parts of the power band more. IF we were to install lets say an exhaust with +18 hp gains for example would we still see the same number in gains or even more with a supercharger? Also do superchargers quiet down the exhaust since they remove some of the rasp? Thanks!

Looks like you are a little confused on the differences between a turbo setup and a supercharger setup.

Thank you for that, I know the differences in how each one is set-up or operates but I am not really sure how bolt-ons affect the supercharger vs the turbo. In other words you throw on some downpipes on a TT setup and you get faster spool and more power down low, but on a supercharger do we see bias gains in the powerband with specific bolt-ons? Thanks.
