@scrming: the point in me saying that American PERFORMANCE CARS all use SC, was not to imply by that statement that that automatically makes SC superior to Turbo. Therefore your video is pointless.

The point is that when choosing one of the two (SC vs Turbo), the engineers chose a SC for their top end versions of the performance/sports cars for a reason. Given that whether it's an all-out sports car (ZR1) or competing pony cars (ZL1 and GT500) - the solution that Chevy/Ford used was "Supercharger" - what was the reason? More importantly, why do Europeans predominantly use Turbo? As far as I know, only Mercedes Benz choose Superchargers for their top-end performance cars?

Anyway, I think I answered the question by posting the information above - that has answered it for me.
