Yu mean "roots" type blower ? Yes, if and when I decide to go forced induction, I'll prolly go the blower route. Plus isn't a blower better for towing ( down the road ) than a turbo ?

Plenty of info without "holier than thou" language.

"Given equivalent vehicles, the turbo would easily motor away from the centrifugal in an acceleration contest......The turbo offered massive midrange torque production, the only system to exceed 600 lb-ft. Need more convincing? At 4,000 rpm, the turbo was more than 100 lb-ft. stronger than either the Roots or centrifugal." Richard Holdener, "Battle of the Boost"
