I like the idea of the latter
Race car.....turbo is best.
Street/strip....centrifugal supercharger is best.
Posing/Looks/Street Rod....Roots type supercharger.
That is just my opinion.

They are awesome machines. My everyday car in dreamland.
4wd and launch control (press the button and off it goes as fast as computer will let it) - utter consistency every time. Magic for the playstation generation. I love it !
