I would just like to point out automatic transmissions durability versus a standard. How many sub 10 second cars run a stick? It's a 90/10 situation. That's because autos shift quicker , last longer and don't miss gates when they go gear to gear when prepped properly. They take human error out of the loop for the most part. As for superchargers being worthless down low? Umm, Apparantly you never looked at a dyno - Turbos make NOTHING until they spool. ZERO. Where is all of this torque your talking about? A supercharger makes power from idle to redline. Most turbos don't spool until 2500 rpm(I WOULDN'T CALL THAT DOWN LOW). The power increases are similar. It's just that with a turbo it just comes in in one big lump when the turbo spools instead of continuously and seamlessly like a supercharger. So you get a big pull all at once with a turbo, with a charger the power comes on more subtley and is already making the same amount of power the turbo will be at the same rpm. Much more linear. Linear power is good.
