Re: K-series TurboCharged or Supercharged ?
Turbo charged. The only advantage to a supercharger is that the powerband is very consistent even at low rpm, but on a honda engine that thrives at high rpm the turbo will be spooled constantly and with quality parts there will be minimal lag. Plus, I don't know anyone making 600-700hp on a supercharged k, when there are tons of people doing it with turbos.

Yeah. I'd opt for a turboed K. I just love that Atom and the TG video.
