Yeah but unlike a turbo it's always there, even at idle. Makes the car sound pretty mean in my opinon.

Oh and superchargers and turbochargers both do the same thing, push more air into the engine through the intake. The difference is how they do it, the turbo uses the exhaust while the supercharger is pulley driven. Both have their ups and downs but both can create a huge amount of extra power.
