Turbos are way more efficient though. Super chargers are powered by the belt system and thus drain HP but add back more than what is lost. While a turbo utilizes a power source that doesn't rob any HP. I't be a tough call but I think I'd go with a turbo set up if I was to build a high powered V8.

The only problem is you need a high revving v8 for turbos.

How high? Diesels don't rev very high.

True, But I'm thinking of the exhaust velocity.
