not trying to be an azz, but do you have any idea what you are talking about or how each of them work? doesnt sound like it, so ill inform you that turbos produce and pump much less heat into a motor compared to a stupidcharger, plus you can intercool them, and no, a supercharger will not last you longer than a turbo, and are much less efficient than turbos. You will not have any "lag" if your system is properly designed and have the correct turbo for your specific application.
