Advantages Of Supercharger

Despite being considered a grandfather compared to the turbocharger, the supercharger was invented only a few years before the turbocharger. Some of the benefits of superchargers include:

Without Delay

A supercharger has no lag and provides continuous power. Power delivery is instantaneous as the supercharger is driven by the engine‘s crankshaft.

Increase in Horsepower

Adding a supercharger is a quick way to increase the horsepower of any engine.

Low Rpm Boost

Superchargers provide good power at lower rpm than turbochargers.

Low Price

Superchargers are an economical way to increase horsepower.

Lack Of Credibility

All forced induction systems (including turbo) require internal engine parts to be exposed to high temperatures and pressures that can negatively affect the life of the engine.

Future of Supercharger

As mentioned above, turbochargers are increasing at the expense of superchargers. Even to the surprise of some industry experts, turbochargers are accelerating dramatically and leaving supercharger production in the dust. That’s because the turbocharged engine provides an “uncompromising” solution for automakers who need to meet increasingly stringent fuel economy and emissions standards while meeting customer demand for better-performing vehicles. . Manufacturers are also combining turbochargers with direct fuel injection technology to offer them smaller gasoline engines, saving fuel without sacrificing power.
