I would recommend looking at the STS website if you want a turbo application that doesnt affect the underhood tempereatures, it is a really unique setup. Furthermore, someone could make the argument that the 8000hp top fuel dragsters use superchargers, but all the stock bodied cars that are anybody in the drag world seem to be switching to turbos. Of course you could always do something crazy unique and do a twincharger setup (a twin screw or roots supercharger being fed by a turbo!)

Edit: all FI applications that I know of, maybe besides the STS turbo setup uses engine oil, I would recommend an oil cooler after a turbo or superchaarge setup though (mini-intercooler for oil)
