The turbo cars are so much easier on parts it seems. Not to mention they seem to be pleasant to drive. I have been passed by many a turbo car going 70-80MPH just thumping quietly down the highway as I spin 3500RPM at 63MPH lol. Some of these cars are so tame the only thing that gives them away is parachutes and funny car cages. That's the only thing that can answer if it runs 10s or 7s lol.

I think the blowers get unpleasant to drive at some point. One particular car I can think of is an 83 Capri, its an awesome stick shift coyote powered car with a procharger or vortech on it. Even driving through the pits the bypass on the blower is flowing so much air that its all you hear. I can't imagine what its like on the road, even though I know he stuffs a filter or something on the bypass to quiet it down. Plenty of roots blown cars have finished but nothing that runs crazy fast ET that I can recall. People have shown up with screw blowers but I can't recall any finishing.
