would of thought a super charger would be more easy to do. On both m50 and m52's. Any one shed some light on this???

well with a turbo you are using waste power to drive the compressor, while the supercharger steals power from the engine. it does have its benefits, but i guess a correct turbo setup ends up being a better choice.

plus personally ... i hate the way chargers whine.
