I think the rule of thumb still holds true.If it's a diesel TURBO . If it's gas BLOWER. For a turbo to work really well(in a gas engine) has to be computer control and variable pitch or multi turbo system.Diesels have so much low end torque who cares that the turbo may lag(not in todays computer controlled diesels). Blowers start as soon as they start to spin.Go with the blower. But how much horsepower can you use?
