My goal is to have the most efficient power, more control of the boost pressure for events where elevation changes like Pike's Peak can be more effective with turbos, and to soften the hit off the corners so traction is not compromised.
Removing the crank driven supercharger will remove twist, drag and heat associated with just driving the SC alone. It will also remove weight on top of the engine and I can either use Air-to-air intercooling or my own water-to-air system.
Right now the fastest cars in Time Attack are using Turbos for power adders, and it just seems the evolution should be in that direction.
