the new blower design on the LS9 is almost as efficient as a turbo setup at providing boost all the way through the powerband... while not technically better, I've always preferred supercharging over turbo charging because I am not a fan of the way turbos a) heat up and b) have to be placed somewhere on the exhaust... I'd rather lose a few ponys at the flywheel and be able to create boost on demand.
