Reply to comment by mooseisfromcanada in ELI5: what’s the difference between a super charger and a turbo charger? by AlienAussie

Why would a turbo charger be easier to install? You literally have to change exhaust tubing for the exhaust manifold and repipe to the instake as well as install and intercooler. There are plenty of supercharger that bolt straight on to the intake or replace it altogether. Haven't seen many "bolt-on" turbo kits.

It depends on your car and how popular it is. There are plenty of turbo and supercharger kits for my car. I really want a supercharger, but a turbo with a remote operated watergate just sounds like too much fun. I would “save” fuel with a turbo compared to a supercharger, but that low end boost…..
