Ford and Chevy have far more turbo charged vehicles on the road then supercharged ones so that should answer your question as what is better. I'm guessing its a lot cheaper for companies bolt a TVS supercharger on top of a performance V8's vs going the turbo route which is more costly and is more prone to warranty work (think Audi S4's). But this past year quite a few supercharged vehicles got turbos and my main guess is due to increased fuel economy and power/ efficiency (AMG and BMW have more then a few new turbo engines this past year) and the Cobalt SS/TC is far better then the SS/SC.

And look how the Ford EcoBoost is showing up in so many different vehicles... I forget the exact percentages and time line, but Ford is definitely pushing forward with their turbos!
