Chuck,
Turbo's are definately more efficient than a supercharger (compressor), and if spec'ed correctly for the application can produce more than enough boost at the low end.
As well they make it easy to facilitate a CAC, wich will have drastically lower intake temperatures than a comperable supercharged unit without a aftercooler would (ie. OEM Nissan SC).
