Nothing better than an engine to give you raw power.
Not saying turbos are bad, just like N/A cars better.
Not trying to be a dick. I have a feeling you have the wrong idea of turbo.
Your statement don't make sense.
N/A or Turbo. Its still the engine that's making the power.
I think what your meant to say is 'Nothing better than N/A engines responsiveness' or 'Nothing better then an NA powerband or delivery'. Something along them lines.
But in the modern world, if you have the money. Turbo setup is always going to outperform N/A equivalent.
They're also more complex to drive. 50% throttle at x rpm is going to be consistent on a NA engine. With a turbo it depends how you got to 50% throttle.
Ie, transient throttle response can be a pain to deal with in most turbo cars.
For me, it is simply the choice of cars available that are practically turbo only that would make me consider them.
(# of manual rwd turbo cars > # of manual rwd NA cars)

What i mean is with N/A the engine makes the power by itself, no add ons.
With a turbo/supercharger, you need the turbo/superchager to make the power.
If you remove the turbo from a turbo charged engine it is rather weak as the engine needs it to make the power.

200 horse power naturally aspirated 90% of the time will be more responsive than 200 horse power turbo. Much prefer real 200 horse power not after forced induction. Think 3SGE Beams.

Oops. Read Wrong.
In my view if your only after 200kw. Why even bother going turbo..
