What is the difference between a turbocharger and a supercharger on a car\'s engine?" Let's start with the similarities. Both turbochargers and superchargers are called forced induction systems. They compress the air flowing into the engine­ (see How Car Engines Work for a description of airflow in a normal engine). The advantage of compressing the air is that it lets the engine stuff more air into a cylinder. More air means that more fuel can be stuffed in, too, so you get more power from each explosion in each cylinder. A turbo/supercharged engine produces more power overall than the same engine without the charging.­ ­ The typical boost provided by either a turbocharger or a supercharger is 6 to 8 pounds per square inch (psi). ­

The key difference between a turbocharger and a supercharger is its power supply. There are tradeoffs in both systems.

The owner and his wife both had died and there were no heirs. The house was sold to pay taxes.
