SC VG

A lot easier then what? I am like 99% sure there is no SC that is made for the VG so it's all going to ahve to be cutom work. It'd be easier to turbo from off of a Z engine or something, and probably even less money just to drop in a new turboed engine. You can get anything doen you wnat with the money, just a matter of how much you want to spend.

It seems like turbocharging is a very complicated process with everything that is needed in order for it to work correctly and not blow the engine.But I do know that if you TC or SC you will need some type of custom work.

I was just thinking if you could get an SC about the size of the of the 4th gen. and make a custom bracket and reroute the intake to the belt side of the engine(where the SC would be).

I'm pretty sure that there's more to it than that and it seems like TC would put a bigger strain on the motor.

I maybe totally wrong and need some input, to why people prefer TC over SC.

People like turboes better cuz they don't put drag on the engines and have 100% power gain. Well not 100%, theres loss somewhere. But less than a supercharger.
